i look in the mirror
and what do i see
but this empty face
staring back at me

how did i get here
i feel so lost
i will get back there
but at what cost

i don't know this person
i have become
all this sadness and anger
where did it come from

this place i am in
there is only me
what will it take
to be set free

locked in a room
with a candle and a spoon
the fire is burning
my heart churning

i am going insane
thinking of how my heart will race
i hove got to find a way
to stay in this place

i feel the warmth rise up
but its never enough
so i do it again
never wanting it to end

i look up and no one is around
what is this hell that i have found?
