Caged within the mind


As I start to fall asleep, I start to have these dreams... There are a lot of whispers along with all the screams... I can taste blood in my mouth, see it on the floors I can hear them knocking, knocking on metal doors Now I'm only in darkness, nobody around It seems like such a sin, just to make a sound I feel lost and lonely, in this empty mist I feel a numb burning all over my wrists Can you hear me screaming, screaming oh so loud? I seem to be sitting in an empty cloud... Nobody will notice what is wrong with me... I wish so hard that I can just flee...
