Nightmare

Do you wake up
To see red eyes glaring in the dark?
This might be just what you need
Do these hocus pocus games
Leave you trapped in a whirlwind of lies?
Fragmented thoughts draw me away
Am I going to be left behind one more time?
No
As I fall victim to the pressure once again
I’ll make one last stand
Do you understand?
As I fight this fight
For one last night
I’m falling down this slippery slope once again
With no end in sight
One more bad decision
Could cost everything
There’s a thin line between heaven and hell
Can I be sure I’ve crossed the right one?
Yeah
Please tell me It’s going to be ok
I know forgiveness persists
I don’t deserve this
Will God save me?
Yes
Have you seen the other side?
I know I’ll be there
Despite all of this
The dirty sack of red tricks
Have infected my brain
Is there a cure?
Yes
I’ve made one last stand
Do you understand?
I’ve fought this fight
One more night
I’ve been bottled up in these lies
For too long
I have a feeling that I’m not alone
Could this be the root
Of all the problems?
Will the day ever come
When I don’t have to deal
With this any more?
Please show me what it’s like
To live in peace
And not have to be caught up
In these vicious cycles
There’s a thin line between heaven and hell
I’ve crossed the right one tonight.
