Darkness
~ written by EM ~



Here I lay in the darkness,
I listen, but all I hear is silence.
I feel the pain of my heart,
I feel the fright of my mind.

Here I lay in the darkness,
I look, but there is no hope.
I am stuck here in my pain,
I am stuck here with my fright.

Here I lay in the darkness,
I touch, but that is worthless.
There is nothing that is going to ease my pain,
There is nothing that is going to ease my fright.

Here I lay in the darkness,
I am left here all alone.
There is no one to help me out,
I have no strength to help myself.

Here I lay in the darkness,
Waiting for death to come.
That's my only way out,
That's the only way out.
