Layers of Dark

Cold winter night
The smell of death and earthworms
The dark shape
of a mountain trimmed against the sky
becomes alive and flies into the darkest void

Please be gone
Leave me here
Let me rest
You're not real

The view from my window
Is nothing but a combination
Of different layers of dark

And it slowly begins
Not the first time but still
I can't get used to the pressure
The smell, the sound, the eyes

Please be gone
Leave me here
Let me rest
You're not real

Connect with your inner self
The root of your fears
The essence of your failures
The moments of grief

The air of your breath
The feeling on your hands
The taste of your pain
The now broken promises

Get...
...me...
out!

Hide where you want,
I will not leave you soon
(Breaking fingers)
I am the reason
why you feel so cruel
(Suffocating)
You have no options
so sit down and rest
(Self-destructive)
Focus your mind
in all things that you crave

I won't leave you
You are part of
me now, you are
me, I am yourself

Bond to me
Spread my wings
Take the leap
Set me free

An unbearable sight
For an unbearable night
The need to obtain
All of which can help

The bravery and might
Of those who can cry
The needs of a child
Whose shadow still fights

Fight with me
Learn and win
Clean your life
Let me die

Covered in ashes
A wish to reborn
Unreachable silence
A bond to beyond

Time still passes
Outside it's the same
Malevolence and violence
All into one's self
All into one's self
All into one's self
All into one's self
All into one's...
...self
