“ Nightmare Street ” August 14th 2006
Numb to the universe
As I stare up at the bland screen
Confusion and dishonest smiles
Are all that linger in my distilled mind
All I want to do is burst out in tears
And run till I diligently drop to the floor
Till I’m paralyzed from every single step I took
Run until my lungs turn to ashes
And the blood dries with-in my veins
Until my eye sight narrows to just your face
Just that smile that I sit up late at night thinking about
As I slip away painfully
To Hell’s fiery depths
But my eyes are stone dry … not a tear falls
And I just can’t seem
To pick up my feet from thins very spot
I’m numb to absolutely everything I want to feel
This is Nightmare Street
Back to the beginning
Of the blackened eyes and long sleeve shirts
To hide the slits from the unforgiving world
That I wish were final
But just could never get the job done
Back to walking threw the halls
Eyes fixed on the floor beneath my stumbling feet
No-one bothered to look twice
No-one bothered to care
Painful flashbacks of what I just can’t seem to forget
Powered by my personal insanity to want to be someone else
This is Nightmare Street
Were you can wake up time and time again
But the monsters never leave
This isn’t just a dream
Go ahead blinked your eyes filled with paranoia
As you finally decide to slowly open them again, you’re trembling
For your fears of who you really are till be there
Closing in on you faster, faster
Torturing every aspect of your six senses
Smell
Sight
Taste
Touch
Hearing
Thought
Until you wish you were died
Because that would mean it would stop all of it would stop
The truth is
Nightmare Street
Never sleeps a wink
It will always be there lurking in the back of you unsecured mind
Absently waiting for you to spontaneously make just another mistake
And second guess everything you are and everything you want to be
This is sever pandemonium
This is Nightmare Street
Welcome home.
