Sea of Irony

my heart's hanging open can't you see
i'm bleeding on the floor
losing my mind in a sea of irony
the forgotten came back last night
came back and i opened the door
thought i'd have one last look
thought it was her at my door

i was wrong last night
opening my door i seen
nothing but shadows
chanting of her vanity

the darnkess grabed me
wrenching me to the ground
death had come to take me
killing myself is what i found

so i unlocked myself
let it be free
i lost my mind back there
in a sea of irony

This is a very powerful and well-written piece, my friend. Irony is enough to make you lose your mind, I know. I hope things go better for you!
