A darkness that befalls the true at heart,
Deceptive and blank, expressionless dark,
A feeling unearthly, wanting to cry out and scream,
Because I am trapped inside a black and white dream,

It's hard to see the silver lining, so hard to know,
Your child's mind is slipping, grab on tight and don't let go,
Childhood is a place I once lived and loved and belonged,
Now I only exists deep inside, living and loving alone,

Tears back then seemed as innocent and tears could be,
I remember a time when the truth really did set me free,
But now I'm just trapped, I exists, that's all there is to feel,
Everything I see and touch is a lie, it doesn’t exists, it's not real,


I exists deep inside, hiding from this deep within,
Cowering from truth and childhood six feet below my skin,
This is the place I am, this is me, I am here and alone and bitter,
Because I was left alone to hate and cry and die and wither.
