Empty Tears and Helpless Cries

Here I am alone again
Seems like agony is my only friend
Darkness clouds all my thoughts
Another heartbreak's got me bent all out of sorts
Tears in eyes and knife in hand
Is it my job to make this torment end
Another day, another dead dream
Happiness is elusive it seems

Hopelessness has lead to defeat
With pain so constant it's even in my sleep
I wanna run away from this place
But your mind cannot be escaped
I've tried to fight but resistance is futile
With spirits so low I've forgotten how to smile
The dark has made the light burn
From this pit I cannot return

My mind is not my own
It's been plagued by disease
Consuming everything
I can barely breathe
Happiness is just an illusion
Created by the mind
But to true happiness
I've become blind

Crying out for some help
With screams unanswered I fail to help myself
Drowning in a sea of black
I've sunk too far there's no turning back
Thoughts and feelings all awry
I crawl up into a ball and cry
Blinded by the pain in my heart
I chose the way out that gave me a fresh start
Blank stare on my face
As i escape from this cold place
Swallowed up by the dark
My lifeless corpse left quite a mark
Tears from loved ones as I was set free
I beg of you please don't mourn for me
Lost and scared all while feeling alone
Now in peace as carved upon my stone
