Shattered Hopes And Broken Dreams

A World Without Light

In a world so gray, I've lost my way
Feeling down, no bright light of day
If I hurt myself, could you be my mend
But these troubles won't seem to end

I'm sinking deep in a sea of despair
No one's listening, nobody seems to care
I can't ask for help, they call it a weight
My soul is hurting, it's all too late

My mind's a mess, a fragile thing
I never had peace, like a broken wing
Love's a mess, it's all destruction
I was trapped in a twisted construction

Chaos was my friend, where I'd hide
In its arms, I tried to subside
My tears and fears, like secrets, I'd keep
My pain, like a secret, buried deep

Gasping for air, in water I'm drowning
The pain I feel just keeps on pounding
Wearing my trauma, like a badge of pride
Would you finally see me and stand by my side

Longing for attention, met with aggression
Promised protection, but found only tension
Love became a weapon, in this reflection
I'm stuck in a cycle of hurt and rejection

I keep going back to the shadows, it's true
Lost in a world with no hope, no clue
If I hurt myself, could you be the aid
But in this darkness, I'm forever dismayed

The weight on my shoulders, it's hard to bear
Every day's a struggle, it's like I'm not there
In the depths of my mind, I'm lost in the maze
These never ending trials, a haunting daze

My heart's aching, it's heavy as lead
A storm of emotions, a tempest in my head
I search for solace, but it's always denied
In this world of shadows, where I often hide

Sometimes I wonder if it will ever change
Will I find peace, or will I always be estranged
If I hurt myself, will it make things right
Or will I be forever trapped in this endless night

I long for a glimmer, a ray of hope
To help me climb this never ending slope
But the darkness surrounds, it's all-consuming
And in this despair, I'm endlessly blooming

So in the depths of my sorrow, I remain
Hoping for sunshine, an end to the pain
If I hurt myself, will you be my guide
Or am I destined to forever reside
