Soul Turned Black

Can you see my pain behind my eyes
Can you see the cracks on my skin
Nothing but a shell of yesterday
And yet no one sees the truth

Masks of emotion
Masks to hide the sorrows
Hiding fears and worries
Hiding truth and pain

No one sees the cracks I so cleverly hide
A withered away soul sleeps away inside
Eyes turn black and blood drips away
A demon in the skin of a mortal

A red sun rises to remind me that I am still alive
I crawl under my skin
I scratch and wail when nobody's there
Red lines and bloodshot eyes of a nobody
I cant stop crying inside

We go nowhere
We want everything
I want to die
I want to live
I want to forget who I killed
I want to forget my pain

I wither away day by day
My soul is turning black
My tears are red and endless
I scream and cough up blood

I'm turning into a demon
My mind is ripped to shreds
The only thing I can tell my family and friends
Is to fear me when I am done.
