Disorientation

Bloodshot eyes soaked in sweat. Sleepless night you won't forget. Running further from within the visions of your inner mind.
Can't decipher, can't decide if you're better off to save your strength.
Start to panic. Lose your breath. Another night you'd sooner forget. Watch your step it's dark in here.
Clench your fists. Hold on tight. You'll not enjoy this. You will cry. Don't try to fight it. You can't hide. You'll not enjoy this. You will cry.
The world in the eyes of a child is nothing more than fantasies, bubble gum, innocence, and living in fear of what's hiding under your bed.
Close your eyes. Hold your breath. The hair is standing up straight on the back of your neck.
Terrified! Paralyzed! You can't hide!
Demons breathing fire pick up your scent.
Demons.
Your taste in the air is appealing it seems.
Find a place to hide that's safe.
Overgrown foliage smacks at your face.
A pungent smell. A bitter taste.
This spider web you can't escape.
You might as well just hold embraced. It seems as though you'll never wake.
There's no place safe to hide.

This Is Shippensburg

Let's make a deal? Cutting down the trees and the conversation's getting out of hand.
A cry from a wolf in the distance is not as far as the distance between us.
Bring to life a drowning dream and speak the words I want to hear.
Make me forget that this is even real to begin with.
This is happening right before your eyes.
Spent the night running from you in a forest.
The faster I move, the closer you get.
I can't reach the end.
Darkness takes over as I lay myself to rest in a world you can't image.
Pain and suffering take over my fears.
I'm lost in this instance. I have no control and there's something inside.
It's hiding inside my mind.
There's nothing more, I can't deny I've been put to sleep. Questions run throughout my mind, time creates a road that I've been down but none of this rings a bell.
I'm scared to face the truth tonight.

Reality is untouchable.
A peel and stick, scratch and sniff vision.
Temper tantrums, and inadvertent transformations are my curse.
I'm not going insane, but I've lost my mind!
Coagulated brain matter like mush.
The sign says black, but I see red.
Confusion's like clockwork inside of my head.
I'm not going insane, but I've lost my mind.
Calculate the circumstances leading to this mental breakdown, and open up the vault that's hiding all of it's contents.
Sugar coated candy lies.
Reality is wicked.
I walk amongst the shallow.
I walk amongst the shadow of myself.
A portrait of a damn fool.
I guess I lost sight of it all.
Too little, too late.
I'm the one that threw it all away.
Why did I sit back, and wait?
If I knew then what I know now,
Things could've been different.
After all has been said and done...
I never stopped holding on.
Help me! I'm lost!
Don't tell me I'm fine!

I left behind these days and tried to extinguish these lies that define what's on my mind.
Self respect.
I try faking the way that I feel, surrounded by bullshit and turncoats. How'd you expect this ship not to sink?
Sure I'll sit and wait.
My pulse will beat with patience to service the meantime. It's not my intentions, to service the moment an expecting to die.
Come back to spill disbelief on your side. Eyes confirm the truth, but who said we were kidding?
It's time to face the music and get on with it.
These candy coated promises are nothing more than a whisper in the wind.
I tried to hold you. Hold on to you.
I remember the time you said "everything's gonna be fine".
