Towards the Cement

The fire laughs at me
And the sound rings like death in my ears
They're trying to get into me
My demons and ghosts
Haunting me
Hiding in the smoke
My heart is filled with pain
And my head with lies
Like a tumor in my chest
Panic is growing
And I'm stuck in between these walls
That I've built up so carefully

I made an armour of cement
To not get stung by the sun
To not let them carve in my skin
The nightmares that I still try to forget
This shield that I wanted
Is running out of air
And the feelings are growing
Like a scream wanting to get out
Is pushed towards the surface
But the armour is still not breaking
The scream is growing
Damped by the cement
And inside I'm hurting
Inside I'm breaking down
