The surge of darkness that inhibits the mind, Lost in the grief that steals life from your hands
Clutch at your shadows as they wander in the sand Hopeless and face down in the ashes of time Crawling back into my bruised and battered shell
Imprisoned by these walls, a slow brain death A caged dog scratching at a wound that never heals Howling and barking at the man on the end of the leash
Some voices never go away A memory stained forever On a life gone to the dogs How many streets have seen my blood
I’m the son of sorrow - some wounds never heal I’m the son of sorrow - so numb I can't feel
When will the nightmares you gave me ever end I still hear your fucking laughter From the days when I cowered in the shadows I’m still that frightened child inside Will I ever leave the playground
Some wounds never heal
Took myself to the hospital roof And looked out on the city I hate Staring down at the insects below
Some voices never go away A memory stained forever On a life gone to the dogs How many streets have seen my blood
When will the nightmares you gave me ever end I still hear your fucking laughter From the days when I cowered in the shadows
I’m the son of sorrow - so numb I can't feel I’m the son of sorrow - some wounds never heal
They all came to see my final resting place I watch the concrete as it races towards my head Will they come see my greatest show Staring and poking like they always did I’m nothing but a blanket of flesh, split and crushed in two*
They can't hurt you when your (sic) fucking dead
