Sinking deeper
Day by day
The thought of living
Weighs heavily today
The lines of crimson
Leave a nasty stain
I can't help but wonder
If I'm truly okay
All these thoughts
Run through my brain
Everything is fine
So why the hell am I feeling this way?
Everything is fine
That's what I always say
I'll get through tonight
If only for a day

He sees the world without color
Without value, merit or honor
His heart was left behind as a child
Only through lies is he able to smile
For his future, he never had a plan
He never planned to live long enough for a future
His life, he felt
Was so empty
That he wasn't truly living
He sees the world without color
Without hope, nor a purpose
Still, he marches forward
Though he is merely an empty husk

Vibrant colors...
How unnerving
Black is the only color which holds my heart

It doesn't lie in simple words
It doesn't hide in the promises
It resides in the fine print.
The details in the context
When actions speak in your stead
Its the effort that makes things right in the end

Sometimes
the pain

Just isn't worth
the struggle....

Welcome to my world
I'm sorry its so dark and dreary

These four walls
Are my cage
And I just waste away in eerie silence
The days run together
Somehow, days don't even matter
And I wait to see the sun again
