sad and broken (poetry)

For The Boys Who Were Mean

Darkness leaves me breathless
Who blocked out the sun?
Shadows make me reckless
Am I the only one?

Playing games, in the black, through the night
Stumbling, closed my eyes
Standing here, on the edge, petrified
All alone, on the side

How far does the dark go?
Give me an omen, show me a sign
How far does the dark go?
Give me an answer, show me the light
How far does the dark go?
How far does the dark go?
How far does the dark go?

There'd better be some meaning
'Cause I'm running for my life
Hiding from my feeling
That you're the reason why

Playing games, in the black, you and I
Stumbling, closed my eyes
Standing here, on the edge, petrified
All alone, on the side

How far does the dark go?
Give me an omen, show me a sign
How far does the dark go?
Give me an answer, show me the light
How far does the dark go?
How far does the dark go?
How far does the dark go?

If the coast is clear, why can't I see?
If the stakes are low, then why's it seem I'm losing everything?
Stare down the fear, like a loaded gun
When the bottom drops, why's it seem I can't see anything?

How far does the dark go?
Give me an omen, show me a sign
How far does the dark go?
Give me an answer, show me the light
