"FUNNELLING DOWN A DREAM"

I’m trying to escape the vortex of my mind 

But the darkness keeps making me resist

As thoughts of my past seem to rewind

And keeps the light from wanting to exist

This world was once a much happier place

Where the bright blue sky shined all day

But now I’m stuck in a world of disgrace 

As my happiness slowly drifted far away

Every time my thoughts start feeling better

I begin to see a light at the end of the tunnel

But then in my mind I write another letter

And I begin swirling back down the funnel

 

Someday I may be able to erase the memory 

That seems to still linger inside my mind

But knowing that you and I will never be

Is a thought that’s so hard to leave behind

You were the happiness within my shadow 

And you brought out the very best of me

But now the darkness has become my show

As I’m lost inside a vortex of my sad reality

Falling further and further from happiness 

As I can’t allow myself to ever let you go

I’m now drowning into my own darkness

As the memories of you become all I know

I still pretend that you’re here with me

And the sky radiates another bright beam

Casting me into a world of my own fantasy 

As I start funnelling down another dream.
