Again the nightmare plagues me

The monsters get me in my sleep

Again the nightmare plagues me

My fear it runs so deep

 

Again my body is frozen

I cannot seem to move

Again my body is frozen

Yet it has no more to lose

 

Again I try to fight them

The monsters in my head

Again I try to fight them

I’m sure they’re in my bed

 

Again I wake one morning

With scratches on my chest

Again I wake one morning

I feel so very stressed

 

Again my head is muddled

Was it real or just a dream

Again my head is muddled

It was real just as it seemed

 

Again my mind remembers

All the stuff they put me through

Again my mind remembers

That my nightmares are all true

 

Again I’m all alone

Memories running through my head

Again I’m all alone

Wishing I was dead

 

Again the pain hits me

It fills my body, mind and soul

Again the pain hits me

Like a never ending big black hole

 

Again my heart is broken

Never sure it will be whole

Again my heart is broken

As I remember what they stole

 

Again my arm is bleeding

From the blades across my skin

Again my arm is bleeding

As I find another pin

 

Again the trauma strikes me down

Nightmares, flashbacks, triggers too

Again the trauma strikes me down

It is stuck to me like glue

 

Again I wish for freedom

From this torture and this pain

Again I wish for freedom

To be released from their tight chain

 

Again I tell you I’m OK

I know that is a lie

Again I tell you I’m OK

I am too afraid to cry

 

Again I feel I’m breaking

As the day comes to an end

Again I feel I’m breaking

Yet this cycle starts again
