Eaten by the waves

[GhostMachine]

The tragedy of the ending,
the way it all crashed down,
I found myself looking for a way out.

Like a building falling from the skies,
I felt the life inside of myself die,
and the echoes of my deathly screams,
only increased the panic in me.

I watched out over the ocean,
saw the stars fade into the skies,
while the sun was eaten by the waves beneath the clouds.

Drifted away from faces,
people I knew became strangers,
and I couldn't recognize myself,
the truth in the mirror was a lie in hell.

Up in the sky,
I saw a bird so free and alone,
I wished that me so I shot it down.

I watched from the cliffside,
the sun crashed into the mountains that lay before me,
the explosion of light was neverending.

Save me from this deceit,
my life becomes a tragedy,
walking alone on the dark streets,
my life is a travesty.

Ohhh...escape from the dream world...
Ohhh...escape from my fantasies...
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh......let me find freedom...
Ohhh....escape from everything.....

i liked the line "the truth in the mirror was a lie in hell." but the ending, with ellipses and h's everywhere - i don't know about that so much.

Thanks for the comment. The ending will never be repeated like that...the majority of my writing is written with the same style of my speech to better comfort it to spoken word. The excessive h's will get removed when this is performed...the ellipses won't though.

heh, well, then it makes sense if that's the transcribed version of a live performance. if it were just words alone, then, well, yeah.
