If night is sorrow
Spoil me with shadows
The world is still turning
But I'm turning still…
At its deepest bottom
Its darkest core
I missed out on life
On humanity's greatness
Its compassion, modesty, and its lore
Or so they say…
Haunted by illusions
Scattered by gruesome desires
I've come to learn their words
Are nothing but imaginary lies
And a hallow made of broken dreams
Here in my shadows
I'm safe
Unleashed
This may not be the place for me
But I cannot be where I want to be.
