the clouds they gather together outside
the world has darkened above my head
this darkness that lurks i can't leave behind
this mess of a life i begin to dread
i started the darkness they all told me
those demons in me i let them inside
they told me there's nothing for me to see
don't be yourself, just be quiet and hide
shut down your heart don't even feel
take it out on yourself hide it away
that pain and darkness isn't even real
nobody cares keep your emotions at bay
hold the searing pain in with all your might
let your heart turn to stone let it all go
drag that blade across your skin hold on tight
emotions fall down your wrist nobody will know
over the years your scars are getting worse
and still nobody has the slightest clue
that the last six years have been your worst curse
they have forgotten the one true you
six years have gone by and the darkness fades
it will never truly leave my hurt soul
i cannot let go of those shiny blades
i can never get back the things they stole
all i can do is accept who i am
darkness and all my light will shine through me
though who i may have been because of them
i will not let them take who i will be
