It all started with a youth
A young one whom we were
Someone whom gone through torment
Now someone who heart-rending inside
Youth believes they can't be helped
Their souls and hearts
Breaking at every single rough word
Ripping and tearing into them
Feeling so lost so far from all
Herding down into a great abyss
No matter how hard they try
This youth didn't quite reach the rope
Even if they did would they be strong enough
To pull themselves up into the light
Just becoming tired with every step
Just wanting to stop caring
Just feeling like a failure
Crawling for that rope endlessly
Hoping to oneday make it back
Cracks painted onto skin
Nothingness taking over all over
Grey-Black endless night
Red sparks flying off this youth
As their soul begins to shatter
