…Vessel

Cascade of dire dreams
No escape from these wounded screams
I bury my face in the palms of dark thoughts
Burdened by memories, wrought
No escape from the pace of the clock
Back and forth in this chair I rock
Timing of the tick of the clock
I rock
Never a moment do I betray
Knowing the smell of decay
Rotted to the core
Still, I sway once more
Muscle memory of horrors long since begotten
My mind, forgotten
I continue to rock to the beat of the past
An empty vessel I am, at last
Cascade of dire dreams
No escape from these wounded screams
I bury my face in the palms of dark thoughts
Burdened by memories, wrought
No escape from the pace of the clock
Back and forth in this chair I rock
Timing of the tick of the clock
I rock
Never a moment do I betray
Knowing the smell of decay
Rotted to the core
Still, I sway once more
Muscle memory of horrors long since begotten
My mind, forgotten
I continue to rock to the beat of the past
An empty vessel I am, at last

Memories can sometimes make us feel like a shell of our former selves, escaping is quite hard indeed. Nice choice of accompaniment, too, in the right mind, touches a few very old strings.
