• Dystopia •

You've drained the color from my skies,

Blinded my youth with an ocean of lies,

But I don't know what is this new feeling,

Drowning in confusion as I ask myself;

If this is a true reality or if I'm daydreaming.

You've crushed my heart into million pieces,

Just like you're slowly damaging me inside,

Honestly,

I can't breathe,

You're suffocating me with chains of agony,

Surrounded by blurry messes as visions turn unclear.

Hear my soft cries and trembling voice,

Admire the tears flowing out of my reddened eyes,

To escape the hollow feeling and shadow's grip,

Clueless of where I'll run to with naked feet,

Dont come near,

You'll drag both of us down into a nightmare.

Because everytime I'm with you,

I'm in dystopia.
