Dark Corner

 DARK CORNER

There's a cold dark corner

In the back of my room,

It speaks to me

And knows all my secret.

Sees me fighting with myself,

So down and blue;

I can't explain the way

my tears run blood along my veins. 

My eyes close.

I'm holding onto

my memories

and hatred. 

If I let go pain,

I'll be ending into the plague...

Storm clouds are gathering

The wind is gonna blow 

As the corner gets closer

and takes me in,

my soul starts to burn

as so does my skin.

I feel so alone and scared.

As I fall, I wonder, "Is anyone there?"

No one knows how I really feel. 

As the days and nights pass by,

I count on myself;

Falling from faith, falling from love.

A darkness which blanks my mind. 

Am I afraid? I don't think so! 

A place full of sadness, a place full of pain.

So there's anything to live for, no future, no past,

So there’s the end of this life at last.
