When you close your eyes
At the moment’s peak
Do you hear life’s lies
Whenever you try to speak
That demise you held on
That guilt you deny but prolong
You try to get out
But this weir will only make you drown

You try to shout
But nobody listen
The darkness subdues
You’re numb but not frozen

You let it in
The agony that you breathe
You mold it all in
Yearning for that rapture
Is that all you desire?
For that temporary bliss?

Not realizing you've fallen deep
*Into the unending abyss

I stood there, waiting
But nothing came

I called out through town
no answer came back

I looked through each block
not a footstep to be seen

I sat down and cried.
no hand came to comfort me

As i look around now, i realize
no one can save me from the hell inside

The shell I found on the shore
has a spatkle in its core.
It glitters and gleams from dawn to dusk,
and gives me hope when I'm out of luck.

All my friends say it's horrid and plain,
They look at my face only to complain,
About having a shell lacking beauty,
And every night i'd cry in fury.

So one day I decided to break my best friend.
From the start i could see, it was hard to do,
for no matter how hard i hurled it to the ground,
There was no shattering sound

I threw it far,
yet it had no scar.
i threw it away,
and id find it on my tray

I looked inside only to find,
the same glitter that gave me hope so many a time.
I knew what i did was wrong,
suddenly all my rage disappeared
and hope filled my soul.

The shell i found on the shore,
Has a small sparkle in its core.
It glitters and gleams from dawn to dusk
and gives me hope when im out of luck
