The darkness, it surrounds me
In the emptiness of space
The night that reigns endlessly
In this desolate place
I pour out my emotions
In a heart to heart with God
Lamenting, resentful
Bitter feelings, a facade
I feel like a hurt soul
Lost, misunderstood
Betrayed and broken
Like a victim, I stood
In a shaky relationship
With the maker above
But how could you cheat on me?
Oh, almighty one I used to love
I was here first
Before the world and the night sky
But you turned away
Leaving me asking why
I was your morning star
The one you looked to
When you felt a void
But now, what am I to you?
My heart bleeds out
As I pour my pain
How could you forsake me?
What did I do to deserve this disdain?
I was always there for you
In every moment of despair
But now you've left me
In this darkness, so bare
I try to understand
But my heart still aches
How could you betray me?
Am I just a mistake?
The darkness continues
As I pour out my woes
But I get no answers
Only silence, that grows
I feel abandoned
In this vast expanse
Was my love not enough?
Did I stand no chance?
The night sky mocks me
As I cry out in pain
I was once your prized creation
But now, I am nothing, just a stain
I trusted you completely
Believed in your love
But now I stand here
Broken, in disbelief, above
My heart is heavy
With resentment and doubt
How could you do this?
Leave me in this darkness, without
I was the first
But now, I am just a speck
In this endless void
Will you ever come back?
The night seems to stretch on
As I wait for a sign
But I am met with nothing
Just the darkness, divine
I am The Darkness
Surrounding this world
But I was here first
Before the stars unfurled
I cry out to God
But my words just echo back
In this endless cycle
Of darkness, I am trapped
How could you cheat on me?
Your loyal and devoted creation
I am left here alone
With only my heart's devastation
The world may keep spinning
The nights may come and go
But I am The Darkness
In this endless, lonely show
I wish I could escape
This pain and sorrow
But I am bound to you
Till there's no tomorrow
So I'll continue to pour out
My heart in this conversation
With the God who cheated on me
Leaving me in this endless damnation.
