bigFRET - Purple Nightmares

I don't know what I need
I don't know who I am
Burgundy that I bleed
I don't think I can stand it

Woke up standing under dark lightning and thunder
Straight up from my slumber, I am no longer on Earth
I'm in my head, lost again, inner demons closing in
Fueled by sin, not innocent, this Purple Nightmare's setting in
Ain't said much, I'm not outspoken, thoughts are pouring from my soul
They shattered, broken, unimportant, need a moment to refocus
Reinforce some hope in me, crave a dose of dopamine
Vices keep ahold of me, I let them keep controlling me

Darkness all around me, heart just keeps on pounding
Pressure keeps on bounding, I hope they haven't found me
Darkness all around me, heart just keeps on pounding
Pressure keeps on bounding, I hope they haven't found me

Try to run but I can't hide, this storm is raging in the sky
This war in me, I play both sides, inner conflict polarized
Acting fine, it's all a show, thoughts are swirling, vertigo
In the open, where do I go? I do not know
Sitting in the darkness in the corner of the room
I try to be focused and strong but what's a guy to do?
Maybe change of scenery? A different point of view?
Flaws astounding, keep 'em counting, wish it wasn't true
(Wasn't true, what to do?)
Rescue me from misery, don't let my fears come true

Darkness all around me, heart just keeps on pounding
Pressure keeps on bounding, I hope they haven't found me
Darkness all around me, heart just keeps on pounding
Pressure keeps on bounding, I hope they haven't found me

I need to start fresh, new beginning, Genesis
No other enemy, I'm my own nemesis
Nothing is stopping me
Something profounding in recognizing it's all my fault
For locking me up like a vault
I can fight this, I can win this
I am rising from the abyss
They can try and knock me down
But I'ma get back up against this Purple Nightmarish violence
Here on out, I'm winning this

Demons try to hound me, they try their best surrounding
They no longer can bound me, a miracle astounding
So let 'em go, let 'em try
I'll face them, break them, eye to eye
It's finally time, I feel alive
Break through the storm, take to the sky
I will survive, will survive
Lesgo!
