Stranded

I’m vainly trying to understand
Why your silence is more deafening than your screams
I have no sense of peace. Am I damned?
Or will I wake up from this dream?

I was aiming for the light, yet the tunnel caved in
And now I’m blindly walking through the darkness
Is my blindness a punishment for a sin?
Will I make it out of hell without becoming heartless?

I’m crawling out of this hole, but I’ve got nowhere to go
I’ve been abandoned; I took my life for granted
What has happened to my soul? I don’t feel whole
This pain is more than I’ve ever imagined; I’ve been stranded.

I’m vainly trying to understand
Why your ignorance of me hurts me more than your screams
The blood runs cold through my veins; I’m going mad
My only company are my dark thoughts, of which I am their Queen.

I nearly reached the surface, yet I was pulled down
Struggling only strengthened the grip
The air rushed out of me, and I had drowned
Darkness came for me as I slipped…

I’m crawling out of this hole, but I’ve got nowhere to go
I’ve been abandoned; I took my life for granted
What has happened to my soul? I don’t feel whole
This pain is more than I’ve ever imagined; I’ve been stranded.
