Breathe

I've tried to see the side 
a part of life we cannot hide 
although it's fact 
we still deny 

And my eyes are wide 
in disbelief of what I see 
it just don't seem real to me 

Facing internal strife 
pacing the walk of life 
withering with the breeze 
holding on to memories 
burning it in my mind 
veracities of mankind 
the limits beyond what you percieve 
your soul's alive but does it breathe! 

I lie with greiving sighs 
questions running through my mind 
answers lagging far behind 
my mind is tired of trying 
to see beyond what man can see 
can I face reality 

Searching my head for a truth yet unsaid 
I brace every breath as I lie in my bed 
the bleeding I hide from this torn heart inside 
where do I go when we cross the other side 

Black is my fear, faith my despair 
wake me, will you wake me 
when the end is near? 

Can you see the way 
the game you play is not for keeps 
clear as glass but hard to see 
your manifested destiny
