Games With GhostsA Poem by schnickythep
Every new dawn brings with it
More problems for the day After night's cold silence Is dead and gone away Still haunted by the demons You created in your head Driving all your thoughts away You think you're better off dead Games with ghosts in the dead of night When the light in your eyes is the only light Haunted by the silence Of a million closed doors Running screaming in the rain Realize we're all insane No one wants to take the blame So lock away what's yours Just cant take the waiting For a sign that never comes Living lies fear in the eyes Of your daughters and your sons Only taught with falsehoods So bite the hand that feeds When anger turns to loneliness Then come and scream with me Games with ghosts in the dead of night When the light in your eyes is the only light Haunted by the silence Of a million closed doors Running screaming in the rain Realize we're all insane No one wants to take the blame So lock away what's yours All the skeletons in your closet They are coming back to life And the past that you kept hidden Seems to stab you like a knife Depressed and overwhelmed Cause there's nothing you can do Through no fault of your own Seems like they're all after you Games with ghosts in the dead of night When the light in your eyes is the only light Haunted by the silence Of a million closed doors Running screaming in the rain Realize we're all insane No one wants to take the blame So lock away what's yours © 2012 schnickythepAuthor's Note
