Untitled Number One


The night is black and cold
Your soul has faded away
Havoc has wreaked on the fold
Sunshine has turned to gray

Numbness is all you feel
Is this all there is?
Can this all be reall?
What happened to growing old and having kids?

Wait - you didn't want to
You want to hang around
You promised you didn't want to
Now you've let them all down

Is there meaning to madness?
Do the bad ones pay?
Why were you filled with sadness?
Now you don't have the breath to pray

Now it's all over
There is nothing now
Your heart feels sober
And no one wonders how
