Runaway Fear (Dreamscape)

This is about living in a nightmare you can't awake from. A little on the dark side and very deep…
So many tears will dry us out
For fear itself has dark eyes
It builds walls to bar the light with no other route
It's a cry for help testing your limits still alive
Its alibis are internal & external having so much more
Expected emotional darkness makes you blind
Losing control over everything we can’t ignore
You're sitting on the edge & have fallen behind
Not everyone’s expectations, end the same
You feel its power similar to a dark ocean
The prey of all evil puts you into shame
The only way out is natural emotions
Listening for its silence of reflections you hide
Seen only in black & white the drama gets deep
It's taking you for a long jagged, cold ride
Drowning in your tears you awake from a hard sleep
