Trapt

The things that surround me

The thoughts in my head

sometimes it's frightening

Everything I hear instead

Trying not to scream

Trying not to cry

But things happen in my dreams

Escaping is what I try

We all know that someday

We all must move on

But it's hard to accept

While watching early dawn

Things that surround me

The thoughts in my head

Mostly it's frightening

Especially what I envision while lying in bed

Trying not to gasp

Trying not to feel

Just hiding behind a mask

As the time always steals

My dreams engulf me

My thoughts run rapid

I guess it's not so frightening

When you start listening instead
