THE GLOOM
waited all my life,
for just one chance,
...to get it right
maybe it came,
and i just didn't know...
if that's the case,
was all my time
here, a waste?
taste of sorrow,
bitter as a knife.
in an open wound...
twisting around,
i'm back in the gloom.
been here all this time.
never had peace of mind.
pain,
...stretching out across my sight.
i just want to feel again.
step into the light,
...falling down
see it coming...
feeling the impending doom.
stuck here in the gloom.
just like..
a razor cuts,
before you feel it..
you're drowning,
in the mire.
scarred, by more than
just fire.
i'll sit here; and
i'll wait...
for the demon,
the one we
call... fate.
pouring all over my hope
over the rocks of
chance.
maybe, just a glance
of happiness, so clear
so bright,
so near.
but, darkness.
it always looms...
and, as always,
i step out, into...
the gloom
for just one chance,
...to get it right
maybe it came,
and i just didn't know...
