I use to be so joyful
Not a care in the world
My life was so bright
Now my life is an endless dark pit
Killing me from the inside
Crushing my heart
So slow and painful
My only light was friendship
But that light is fading
About to go out
My cries
They show my pain
But only to myself
Because no one sees them
No one knows the darkness
Hidden in my soul
Engulfing me
All the crying
All the pain
Does nothing but crush me
Waste my breath
But I have to release it
All the pain and misery
Because I will die
Bottling all my emotions
Though no one else sees them
I see and feel them
The darkness flows out of me
My cries
Don't help me show
All the pain and misery
Within me
That you cannot see
That no one can see
But they let me feel
Feel that I'm still human
My cries
Express the darkness
Within my soul
That only I know
And I shall die
Being the only one
To know how I truly feel
How truly dark my soul has become
