::thoughts on a silent day:: Behind repression, beneath the day. We see the moments, they slip away. Too long to falter, too quick to say. Confine the feeling, imbibe the blame. Without discretion, within our pain. We breathe the moments, we feel decay. In doubts confliction, the thoughts remain. Release the motive, and then betray. ::self-doubt intrudes:: *All my essence stripped away* *Nothing from my life remains* *Hold the guilt, reveal the shame* *Is nothing left still sacred?* ::Blind in the lurch:: /In the shadows slowly fading/ /In the darkness there is nothing/ ::The voice inside:: (You will not survive) (I am still inside) /Lurking shadows, blame the essence/ /Writhing darkness, consuming slowly/ (I will still survive) (You will not reside) *In the shadows I remain* *Feeling torn by suffering* *Hide the guilt, ingest the pain* *There is nothing sacred*

One day we close our eyes, and see our hidden lives. All of the dreams we had misplaced. Time keeps on slipping by. Reveals the truths we once denied. The dreams we mentally erased. Is that doubt surrounding? It will cut your hopes to shreds and never let you go. Never give control. Some feelings still constrained. Compromise and doubt remain It settles there for quite some time. Though you did not create those boundaries that you must break. Electric Eaves within your mind. I see the truth so brightly. Shining at me through the hazy shroud of doubt. It won't let me out. Once you have realized failures do not compromise. Reclaim the passion still inside. Stop thinking back in time, look forward to decide. Reconvene and let your dreams arise. I see the truth surrounding. This source of light exudes from deep within. Let your dreams begin. -The voice returns- (I am he who hinders thee, your dying dreams created me!) (Absolving me, you're never free, I am your new reality!)

The voice exists: Don't let your visions die, give them to me. I will take them farther away from your memory (destroy your motivation and kill your hope) Don't store emotions within, let them recede. (without your guiding intent, you learn remorse) Don't let your visions escape, give them to me. I will keep your safe through the end. Trust only me. (forlorn and suffering you stray from what you once believed was faith) You made your choice.

about

Songs about the voice of doubt that lives inside. That small voice in your mind that whispers at you to stop trying to realize your dreams, and instead remain complacent.

Sometimes we may listen to it, but we should never let it win.
