Suffer the Phantoms

A figure emerges from the static

And as it approaches me

I hear the ringing again

I am suffocated by fear

And submerged in silence

Take me away

Open your arms and let me fall inside

I will

Descend

Into the depths

Of the unknown

Away from all the light

Away from every hindrance

I cannot be alone here

Every night I feel fear for my life

I wish to sever all the suffering

And every feeling left

Decades of running have gotten to me

Pain is eternal in my suffering

The figure is reaching out

It has marked me for death

Hollow voices echo in my mind as the fire in me starts to wane

Breaking me down

I feel it latch onto my mind

Digging through my memories

To exploit all of my fears

The gray featureless phantoms that surround me take my hands

Guide me to my demise

Fingers writhe around my eyes

Faces I don't recognize

Mock me as I sink inside
