I keep it all in the inside
'Cause it's the safest place to hide.
This pain, this scar, this unwanted feeling
Had always made me feel like dying.
They say "keep going" but how can I?
There's none I could do other than sigh.
For this darkness creeps behind my back
Hungry and thirsty... wanting to attack!
This violent monster only but minute
Had my voice devoured. Now I'm but a mute.
Thirsty of my blood, famished towards my heart.
Its horrible gazes want to rip me apart.
