I’ve lost faith in me My strength faltering under the weight Of the world around me I’ve lost faith in me Since I let myself fall for you It was my courage that tempted me To hold your hand Respond to your smiles And make me believe in a lie Why did I let myself fall from my inner grace? My heart was so strong, I had wings that could soar me high! Yet I chose to cut them off myself To keep myself grounded and bound to you. You were the greatest lie You were my ultimate sin You were my drug, my addiction My greatest downfall You left You left me alone in a cruel cruel place After you turned everyone against me Twisting and distorting everything to suit your story -- a story that destroyed me Now demons haunt me They're everywhere I go, everywhere I turn And not a single angel in sight All silver linings gone I'm going crazy The silence of my isolation is deafening And in this, my horrid self isolation Only the feeling of my tears break the coldness of my skin No words can fully describe The inner workings of my broken mind No tears will be enough To satisfy the thirst for comfort or relief And as I lay here, in my isolation I think only of the day When the skies will clear and end The isolation of my mind
