Alone in the darkness
Trying to catch my breath
Looking back on my past
Yet trying to forget
Reaching up to find the light
While knowing there’s none there
Still I’m grasping around, only to touch air
Holding on so tightly
To what I do not know
All the while trying
But not able to let go
Everything is going numb
And the pain is killing me
Who will open this bolted door?
And finally set me free
You can’t hear my screams
They died long ago
Slowly I am drowning
In the tears that never fell
