These days are darker as of late,
Wallowing in purgatory with a stolen fate.
The cords of life have been cut,
And on this sentiment my eyes are shut.

There is no cure no aleviation,
Bound to the dark in subjucation.
Words glisten on silken silver wings,
But in darkness the silks warn and sways too thin.

I'm done with fighting you oh lord and master,
Make this end come ever faster.
For everynight i fear the darkness,
That claws at me from more than the rafters.

I feel it in the emptiness inside,
Left empty long ago a heart thats shied.
Crying into silent nights,
Unable to fight this distressed plight.

So take me away and take my beating,
And those that listen take note of its fleeting.
This is a choice i have had to make,
To keep the sadness from spurning incessant ache.
