Breathless

The sound of thunder makes you start to wonder
What it's all about
Why you're even alive why you need to survive
Why not the quick road out
Standing in a field feeling very surreal
It's where the monsters come
You fall to your knees you beg for them please
Look what you have become

The calmness of the trees around
Despite the fact you know the ground is shaking your soul
You close your eyes and breath in deep
you feel yourself begin to weep and it's taking it's toll

The flames wrap round your skin
Your mind closes in
You've lost your senses
You feel it burning
But it's cool to the touch
You struggle so much
Lost all defenses

Eyes start to open and you sit there broken
Not sure of where to go
Pull yourself to your feet feel your heart as it beats
Start moving slow
Feel the world as it turns check yourself for the burns
Are they even there
Your hands start to shake are you even awake
You're living your nightmare

You don't know what has just begun
And you feel your legs begin to run
And they'll carry you home
You fall inside and slam the door
It's never been this bad before
And your mind starts to roam

The flames wrap round your skin
Your mind closes in
You've lost your senses
You feel it burning
But it's cool to the touch
You struggle so much
Lost all defenses
Your body starts to fall through the floor
The walls start to roar
The drop is endless
You think that maybe
If you try to swim
But your chances are grim
You're growing breathless

As the ground closer comes feel the breath leave your lungs
There's no bruises to tell who you were when you fell
Lift yourself from the ground use the courage you found
And climb somehow
In the dark there's a light and you know you can fight
No going back now

The flames wrap round your skin
Your mind closes in
You've lost your senses
You feel it burning
But it's cool to the touch
You struggle so much
Lost all defenses
They start to scream and then they start to attack
But you just scream right back
It's not quite endless.
You see the end and then you start to shout
A hand pulls you out
And you lie breathless
