Bed of Nails

I'm dreaming on a bed of nails.

Alone and waiting for a ship that never sails.

I cannot move, I'm to afraid.

This is my own punishment that I have made.

I want to scream,

But no one hears me in this dream.

As I'm sleeping on the nails I bleed.

Someone to save me is what I need.

Save me from my bleeding heart,

Though this dying is an art.

This dream is never-ending,

And there is no angel to be sending.

I watch for sails.

My hope always fails.

It never comes and I'm alone,

Listening to the seas hungry groan.

I've been waiting for so long.

I want to be where I belong.

Someone save me.

Someone set my soul free.

Save me from this dream I'm in.

Move the nails out from my skin.
