Battleground of the Mind

By DarkReality

Whispered thoughts
Surreal surroundings
Bitter crying in the night
Standing up to help the fallen
Known world spins, then fades to black

Whimpering, as of a child
Bleeds through sound like liquid pain
Fallen comrades, bleak depression
Dying embers, burning flames

The war for all
The lost child's sanity
Is being fought on dying ground
Always the mouths of truth and innocence
Are the first ones to be bound
