sorrow's hope

 
sadness has risen in my skies and I have no place to go
I turn inside myself
and there is sorrow to greet me

tiny feelings of doubt grow into mighty thoughts of fear
I gulp then sigh
sleeping the day away
disconnected, I feel too much, I feel too little

inside I ache
tortured existence I was made to hate
cull the pain
exorcise the truth
please lie to me

innocence has lived to die to honesty
the world is what it is
the good don't always win

little soul of hope
don't look at me that way
I can't bear it

sweet charity I will continue to push on
with faith in my mortal core
my morality shines on a darkened day
