Everything in me starts turning,  
as a darkness gently shrouds.  
The blood within in me begins burning,  
as i see it creeping in with the clouds.  
This blackness is concerning,  
all my fears are now awake.  
The universe is clearly affirming,  
this twilight is opaque.  
My soul inside me churning,  
as all my life at stake.  
My actions must be discerning,  
the light I must take.  

How can I define to you in a rhyme
My pain, melodically, nurtured by time

How can I make anyone feel what I feel
When all I know are lies, how can I make this real

Let me bring you down with me
As we walk through the fires, tell me what you see

Give me 18 years to destroy your worth
I'll be in your brain til you regret your birth

Let me throw you to the lions blindfolded
Stand your ground, see how long you can hold it

Let me sully all that surrounds you
You'll thank God for the worst you've been through

Only when...

Why speak
when words become weak
and everything you want is in the darkness
and you are forever alone
 
Happiness will never meet you
and your prince will never seek you
You will die unknowing
from your heart with blood flowing
 
Beating and pumping
all of your life into nothing
You'll be a stain on the soil
until dust in the face of turmoil
