The sky turns black
It starts to rain
I wait for the thunder
But hear nothing

I scream out loud
But there's only silence
Am I alone in this world?
I suddenly seem so tense

I see myself running
Through the rain-washed streets
As my shoes hit the ground
My heart matches the beats

I break out in a sweat
And sit up straight in bed
It was only a dream
It was all in my head

I pull open the curtains
To greet the sunny day
But something's not right
Yet I can't exactly say

All I hear is silence
Not even my own heartbeat
I start to feel a little numb
Soon I can't feel my feet

What is wrong with me?
Was that "dream" reality?
Will all my senses be taking away?
Will I soon lose my ability to see?

A few minutes later
I can hear again
Although I didn't lose
I didn't really win

I'm closing up inside of me
One way at a time
But I try to assure myself
That really I'm doing just fine

I've been bottling up my emotions
For way too long, it seems
All my feelings are squished in there
And I'm bursting at the seams

I'm seeking professional help now
And I thank that rainy day
If it never told me what was wrong
I probably wouldn't be here today
