Endless dark - or so it seems,
life is shattered, with all our dreams
of joy and hope, the fading light,
and darkness, darkness for all in sight.
...
The problem is
I need a drink.
The problem is
my head.
...
I feel so much pain, oh what shall I do?
I just want to spend some time with you,
Some time, just us, together again,
Oh what shall I do, I feel so much pain?
...
Don't leave the house without it
In your world that you make
And keep it fixed no matter what
Your smile that is fake.
...
There once was a perfect li'l town,
where morals and standards were sound,
But the strong were protected,
and the weak just neglected,
...
Was I asking for trouble the moment my heart
opened itself up to you,
took you by the hand and led you to see
all the feelings inside that were true?
...
I see that this vast expanse is my fate
As my eyes raise above to the sky,
It stretches itself like a cruel black hole,
I feel panic - unable to fly.
...
You furrow your brow
and clench up your teeth
to tame the old anger
that rages beneath,
...
The sunshine moves round and just reaches the bit
between my bed and the windowsill,
I squash myself down, barely able to fit,
feel the warmth on my face - and the world stands still.
...
Deep down I know the difference; right & wrong and good & bad,
My intentions they are good ones, the best I ever had,
Yet within me lies a battle, reasons why - I do not know,
Will I ever get it right - and keep it so?
