Better Off Dead

I can hear my heart beating;

I can feel my blood flow through my veins;

As i toss and turn and turn again;

Will this nightmare i'm living ever end.

I lie here every single night;

Wishing that i'd never flown;

Why won't these spirits leave me;

Why must my mind always deceive me;

Chorus

Sometimes i feel myself slipping

Or when my mind ststarts drifting;

When the thoughts get lost in my head and i;

Start to think i'd better off dead

Here comes my shattered dreams;

There goes my long lost borrowed visions;

Separation brings me sadness;

While i am bordering on total madness;

I stagger through these days;

A mere shell of who i once was;

Paranoia taints my feelings;

All this shame and guilt i'm now realizing.

Chorus (solo)

Peace comes as hell grows silent;

Find my way to a fitful sleep;

Pain returns with the sun's rising;

This bitterness inside is not surprising.

Chorus
