Darkened Light

My being has went numb

I'm useless

I'm worthless

--------------------------------------------------------

I used to be strong

I could go on for miles

Without knowing what direction to go

--------------------------------------------------------

Look through my eyes

You'll see the everlasting sorrow

All because of you

It will never be mended

--------------------------------------------------------

You abandoned me

Tore my very soul

I trusted you

I needed you

--------------------------------------------------------

I'll never forgive you

For the pain you've caused

What chance would I have surviving?

You're gone forever

--------------------------------------------------------

The moon has faded

The sun has lost its shine

The grass isn't green on either side

In my world

--------------------------------------------------------

Clattered clouds

Gather in the distance

Acid rain

Stinging as it touches my skin

--------------------------------------------------------

To triumph again

Would only push back the pain

Show me the light

That hides within this darkness

--------------------------------------------------------

It's here somewhere

It has to be

It always is

In times like this

--------------------------------------------------------

Touch me

Heal me

Save me from the depths of this hidden light

Behind the darkness

Inside of me

--------------------------------------------------------

Can't you see?

You made me

You broke me

I'm dead

--------------------------------------------------------

I'm dead alive and it's scary

Here alone

Without my master

To guide my way home

--------------------------------------------------------

I need to taste the love

The love I once held in the palm of my hand

I need you

My love

--------------------------------------------------------

All of these emotions

Fill my being

Shake up my soul

I can't take this drastic change

--------------------------------------------------------

I can't get over you

I haven't the time

Why won't all the pain just go away?

--------------------------------------------------------

It hurts

To know I once had you

Had you as my own

To love and to care for

--------------------------------------------------------

But now I'm left alone in the cold

This damp and darkened light I once held

The light inside the darkness is too deep now

I can't reach that far back in time

--------------------------------------------------------

See the light?

See the dark?

See the smile?

See the tear?

See the wounds?

--------------------------------------------------------

It's all inside of me

Locked inside of me

--------------------------------------------------------

You don't care

I don't care

We don't care

Together

--------------------------------------------------------

How sad it is when you have only one thing in common

And it's how much you hate yourself for leaving

For shedding the blood of a loved one

--------------------------------------------------------

I will go in search of the small speck of light

Hidden beneath all of this darkness

And the day I find it

Will be the day I hold you again

Because that light isn't hidden

It has only been darkened
