Darkness
On a good day, everything was taken from me
Even my laughter, I'm left frozen behind
It's all tainted here and smells like rotten
I'm feeling dizzy, where are you taking me ?
I try to snap out of it, but my eyes are closing
Look at my eyes across the darkness
You're going to play with me
My hands, feet and eyes are captured by the darkness
I can't move anything, it's so miserable
I'm going crazy and tired
Throwing away all the beautiful memories
Revealing all my hidden sides
I hope this is all a dream and will be forgotten
It will be erased after time
All the scars in me, I'll still be hurting
I can't wake myself from the despair
But as time passes and burns into a memory
You can see a different me.
