The Darkness

            The Darkness

  Here I go again how did I get here
One day I was so happy and black the next
     What do I do how do I get out
When will I ever see the light

     As I set here in the dark with nothing but my own thoughts
I've come to realize that I'm truly all alone
     No one really cares about whats really going on
They only pretend so they feel better about themselves

    So I walk through this life all on my own
I know I'm the only person that I can count on
    People will say and do things but I know it all an act
No one has really ever cared about me

     People don't understand what it's like in my head
They think they know me but truly have no clue
     They only see what I have allowed them to see
I continue to keep everyone at arms length

      Have to protect myself from ever getting hurt
I put up a wall that I hope not even he can truly get through
      Only he has the ability to truly destroy me
So I think how to sabotage us before he gets the chance to see the true me

     So time to shut down for I care to much
Have to tell myself he could never love me as he says
     I'm more comfortable with my demons for with them I know where I stand
So I retreat to the darkness to dance with my demons
