Sacrifice

Been feeling this way for way to long.
Can't sleep, barely moving at all.
I'm tired of feeling this way. I need someone to save me.

Take this pain from me, cut out my heart and give it away.
I don't need it any more.
I don't want it any more.

Can't dream with these eyes.
I'm blind for now, can't see through this cloud.

Is this really worth it?
Is this how I will live this life?
It's like a scripted reality. Everyone is just another actor with bills to pay and a thousand broken dreams running through their mind.

Cut out my heart and give it away.
I'm done with it and the toll it takes on my sanity.

Fall into this trap with me. see the world in different shades of grey.
Fall away from the beaten path. And see the price I pay.

I tread on hallowed ground. The demons we created are all around.
They laugh and jeer in dark cheer, at the mistakes we make.

Cut my heart from my chest.
I don't want to feel any more.
Take my soul and throw it away.
I won't need it any more.

Darkness follows me.
So dark I can't see.
Someone save me.
From this age old sacrifice.

Take this pain from me, cut out my heart and give it away.
I don't need it any more.
I don't want it any more.
Any more.

I write whatever comes to mind, whether it be songs or a book. I'm going to include all of my songs as poetry because technically that is what songs are poems put to music.
