Death's call

Chasing shadows from my past
 When death comes calling they grow vast
 I'm falling into nothing fast
 Haunting dreams come closing in
 I always end up where i've been
 A vicious circle from within
 Explanations so illusive
 Now i'm blinded searching for them
 The aggressor lies within
 This i know as we battle constantly
 Whatever crosses my path, whaterver gets in my way
 Whatever pours itself out as I remove the scab
 If it's attention you want, this is what needs to be done
 Don't gently tap on my shoulder, smack my head with a rock
 Feels like what lies ahead is a lifetime of agony
 There is a light at the tunnels end
 A light that turns out to be the undeniable fire
 A fire that burns, outside and in
 A fire that reminds me of my every sin
 It stains and distorts, then lingers and burns
 Chasing shadows...
 Explanations...
 Whatever crosses...
