Burn Deep Cleanse

How tragic to you, it may even seem,
To cleanse my soul it is just a dream.
Trying my best just to get to tomorrow,
Yesterday screams with all of it's sorrow.

A silent cry, I scream it aloud,
No one will hear it, yet I am proud.
Crushed dead beneath the shadows of time,
For my own burdens are not worth a dime.

Too late to hold on, I can't anymore,
Behind my green eyes, what lies in store.
A fire once burned deep down inside,
Now it is gone along with my pride.

Look deep inside me and what do you see?
Look very close, it's a reflection of me.
How deep it flows the river of fate,
Deep in the silence, the hour grows late.
