Drained

[Beautiful Nightmare]

Everything fades,

And everything dies,

Everyone loves,

Or at least they try.

But i feel like i have been drained.

 

Drained of life,

And drained of love,

And when you cry,

You know you are alive,

But these eyes have turned dry.

And when you bleed,

You feel the warm red blood,

But this blood has turned to ice.

 

I have seen beauty,

Turn to beast.

I have seen white

Turn to black.

And its only when i die,

I will know i was alive.

 

Cause when you cry

You know you are alive,

But these eyes have turned dry.

And when you bleed,

You feel the warm red blood,

But this blood has turned to ice

You put into words a feeling I've felt many times. Lovely words and expressions. I especially liked the lines

And its only when i die,

I will know i was alive.

 

Cause when you cry

You know you are alive,
