Shattered Illusions

Am I aware of here and now Can I see through the shadows My skin, my eyes, my ears Try to trick me Nightmares had been set Twisted in my head I feel my life regained Breaking all those chains I managed to see clear Struggling with my fear I feel my hatred rise Suppressing all these lies I force my eyes to look into darkness Force my will to see the truth Brought myself to find out My nightmares are not real Rise, decay, forlorn Shattered illusions My ways turned out to be pestilent and tortuous No trace to follow Shattered illusions I feel deaf and numb So shattered and broken A gruesome face in my dreams Stared at me, didn't cease to be Finally, so it seems I wake up, once again am free
