Dream Awake-Mare

I keep waking up with dead insects on the floor
Got boils on my back and I forgot to close the door
It's like the sun refuses to go down
I greet each morning with nothing but a frown

I ask myself what would yesterday think
Search for evidence at the bottom of the sink
You're feeding off me all through the night
Put faith into protection of candlelight

My skin is broken and my eyes are black and blue
Sat within sockets that bare images of you
Dream an awake-mare, when I am asleep
I'm climbing up a staircase far too steep

And when I'm at the top I know that I will fall down
And I can only hope that there is no one around
A cottonwool cynicism ravages this world
I guess that's why I've wasted all my time on this one girl

The big hand's moving fast while the little hand stands still
Lost my sense of purpose long before my sense of will
Never satisfied with the hours in the day
There's far too many for something worth taking away

Your poison leaves me in delirium
Injecting me with all the things that I am yet to learn
My downfall plays in time with music in my head
I think you will find I'll be better off dead
