Time stops, stands still As I await in darkness Swallowing the pain, the pills Waiting until I feel less Feeling so lost and alone Drowning everything out I drink, disgusted, on my own Too much after this drought The pain, the fear, the hate Tears streaming, too much to bear Carrying this ballast, this weight I damage myself so I disappear.

Time stops, stands still As I await in darkness Swallowing the pain, the pills Waiting until I feel less Feeling so lost and alone Drowning everything out I drink, disgusted, on my own Too much after this drought The pain, the fear, the hate Tears streaming, too much to bear Carrying this ballast, this weight I damage myself so I disappear.
