Trauma
Keops Lyrics

I need to hide away
I feel overwhelmed and need to retreat from the world.

In doubt of should I run or stay
I'm uncertain whether to face my problems or try to escape from them.

The feel of it is real
The pain and trauma I've experienced is vivid and tangible.

like everlasting flame
It feels like the hurt will never go away.

trapped by a memory
My trauma continues to affect me in a profound way.

I can't find no remedies
I've tried everything but nothing seems to help ease the pain.

Yet sick to pretend
I'm exhausted from trying to act like everything is okay when it's not.

I'm close to an end
I feel like I'm nearing my breaking point.

The sight of red sky night
I'm reminded of the traumatic events every time I see certain things.

Charred flesh stench through breath of death
The memories I have are gruesome and disturbing.

A panic eyes I see
I'm surrounded by people who are just as traumatized as I am.

Dreadful people everywhere
The world seems full of cruel and uncaring people.

Cries and screams are in my dreams
The trauma follows me even in my sleep.

Every night they hunt again
I can't escape the memories no matter how hard I try.

You know well
You understand what I've been through.

I went through hell
My traumatic experiences were excruciating and brutal.

Now I'll rise victorious
Despite the pain, I will persevere and overcome my trauma.

Searching for some remedy
I'm still trying to find a way to heal from the trauma.

So desperate for help
I'm willing to try anything to make the pain go away.

It drives me insane
The constant struggle to heal feels overwhelming and never-ending.

Relining that night's hell
I can't stop dwelling on the traumatic events.

Weeping sirens ring of bells
The sound of emergency services triggers memories of the trauma.

But all that I could think
Even when surrounded by chaos, my thoughts still center on how to help others.

How to help to someone else
Despite my own pain, I still have compassion for those who are going through their own trauma.
