Trenches

Reckless abandon, coming undone
Survive the swallow, decade of ruin gone
I found myself in trenches tonight
Regret runs wild as darkness kills all the lights

All the lights have died
Slow dose of hell stripping what's left
Sleepless for days on end
And ingest life on all sides
I can't be reached in this soulless design

Capsized my insides, hours inch by
Inviting the lions to all take a piece
Destroyed by endless ends, looking to cease
Searching the city to no avail

Can't find me anywhere, winds out of sail
I found myself in trenches tonight
Regret runs wild as darkness kills all the lights
All the lights have died

Slow dose of hell stripping what's left
Sleepless for days on end
And ingest life on all sides
I need a search light to make amends

From the insides out to looking in
On the strength of its test
A full blooded sense of life
Lived far beyond the comfort zone

Ghosts remain on auto pilot looking to cancel out
A brief breath of air in darkness
Survive in doubt
