Silent Screams of the Damned
I've lost controlI reach for a hand to hold
Finding none
Painful regret claims my heart
As the past cannot be undone
I long to scream
I long to run
Far from this place that entraps me
These emotions never felt before
I want for nothing anymore
But to be the wife that you adore
Though, love, strength is falling from me fast
Crumble do I beneath this weight
No voice to scream
I fear my next breath should be my last
Leave me
You demons unrelenting
I cannot overcome this haunting
Just break me out
Lift me up from the ground
My lips unable to feign a sound
How can this be borne
How is one able to fathom the strength
To live this life of toil and scorn
I have run out of length to go
I feel nothing
Nothing do I know
I wish you were here to save me
But you simply cannot be
So silently
I shall scream until the pain is gone
Until my life escapes from me
And my soul passes on
