Anacrusis

Terrified

Anacrusis


Misted eyes perceive 
Thoughts I can't believe 
Emotions that run free 
Never let me be 
Self-inflicted pain 
It's a loss without a gain 
Lost in myself, I know not why 
I can't escape, all truth a lie 
I try to run, I cannot hide 
I'm so afraid, I'm terrified 

Mirror's hollow stare 
Reflecting my nightmare 
All I see pure hate 
Soon I'll suffocate 
Confusion taking me 
Eclipsing all I see 
Lost in myself, I know not why 
I can't escape, this fear inside 
I cannot run, I cannot hide 
Lost in myself, I'm terrified 

Silent are the waters 
Of life flowing free 
Born through illusion 
From the depths of me 
Engulfed in the current 
Of many tears 
It carries me to serenity 
To serenity...
