I wake from sleep, sweating.
All my world in turmoil.
I look around, finding myself,
for a brief minute I am lost….
This hands that lunge at me,
I see them so clearly,
holding on to my throat…
I succumb, gasping for air!
Rise, I rise…
From among the ashes, I rise…
The dirt I’m buried in, I rise!!
I wonder why, is this a sign,
is anybody out to get me.
I try to see, I try to think…
I see nothing, I see no reason,
why these nightmares grab hold on me.
This terror which
This fear that haunts my sleep.
I see nothing…Nothing.
Am I my own enemy?
Am I the one going against myself?
Holding myself down, suffocating…
Stopping my own breath?
I wake from sleep, sweating.
All my world in turmoil.
I look around, finding myself,
for a brief minute I am lost….
This hands that lunge at me,
I see them so clearly,
holding on to my throat…
I succumb, gasping for air!
Rise, I rise…
From among the ashes, I rise…
The dirt I’m buried in, I rise!!
I wonder why, is this a sign,
is anybody out to get me.
I try to see, I try to think…
I see nothing, I see no reason,
why these nightmares grab hold on me.
This terror which
This fear that haunts my sleep.
I see nothing…Nothing.
Am I my own enemy?
Am I the one going against myself?
Holding myself down, suffocating…
Stopping my own breath?
