- Coming Down -

My eyes crack open to the blistering sun.
The voice in my mind is a deafening scream.
Faded memories and wondering what happened.
Echoes from the night ring like a sinister dream.

Nightmare sun.
...

Bottles, pills, needles, and circuit boards.
I can't quite remember what took place here.
I can't quite remember he, or she, or we.
But I know I tried to make it disappear.

One too many, and she's never coming back.
I've see my reflection, and I've painted it black.
One too many, and she's gone forever.
I've seen my hope, and its name is never.

Nightmare sun.
...

Now broken glass decorates the floors.
Broken computers, cabinets, and doors.
Now broken dreams decorate my mind.
Broken memories, tears, and hearts in kind.

One too many, and I scream into the walls.
I've see my reflection, and my soul, it crawls.
One too many, and she's gone forever.
I've seen my hope, and its name is never.

Nightmare sun.
No more lies.

I hold a photograph against my lips.
And I remember all of my actions.
On a slow motion film behind my eyes.
Each image, cutting my heart into fractions.

This is it. There's no more apologies.
I lied to myself, and now it's all done.
I lied to her, like a fool without care.
I lied to our future, and now it is none.

Now broken mirrors decorate the floors.
Broken knuckles, bruises, cuts, and sores.
Now broken dreams decorate my mind.
Broken memories, tears, and hearts in kind.
