Shuteye Symphony

A sullen feeling of resentment

Dwells into my peaceful sleep

Turning this heaven into pure nightmares

Ending that serene sentiment

Letting the iron walls draw nearer

Shaking me up from that dear dream

Grime and rust now cover my thoughts

Swollen mind too shiftless to recount

Of that netherworld that I've witnessed

Privily faded away from my senses

I feel time running out,

This timepiece wearing away

And nothing will remain of me

When all emotions fade to grey

Torn down in apathy I await another dawn

Aimlessly wandering across life

Unseen that dreamy kingdom come

Unseen that realm beyond

Constrained I rejoin the daily bustle

My freedom laid in leaden chains

So now it is my time to leave ...

A weight too heavy to bear

An ache that can not be healed

This close tedium made me weary of this world

Afield lies the abandon I've been aching for

Never to return to this irksome place

That solemn promise I've made will be broken

As I slowly sink into fathomless slumber

For eternity I shall roam in the silent heights,

In these lands lying above your sight

But no, this is not the end for me

It is a new beginning

Now unshackled

I continue my journey towards the end of time.
