The monster has been hidden for so long
I know what’s wrong
I hold the external and internal pain in
Because the underlying emotions might just eat me alive
It’s killing me so I’ve turned to the dark comfort
Becoming numb from the pain
Bleeding out to take the pain away
But what’s to gain from this painful way

The knives n’ pens are starting to pierce the veil of my soul
Something has got to give, but I don’t know what
They tell me to move on but never give me the instructions on how

My mind is pacing, heart is racing
Depressive thoughts are starting to erode my soul
I feel as if I’ve fallen from grace
Now I try to crawl from this forsaken place
Who do I cry out to for help?
These black tears I cry are making this painting of my life bleed
So I curse at the life that pains me…to…stop hurting me
But I guess that’s not an option
So I question myself should I push on….

The knives n’ pens are starting to pierce the veil of my soul
Something has got to give, but I don’t know what
They tell me to move on but never give me the instructions on how

I guess the life I have made for me is tearing me apart
This black heart of mine bleeds for eternity
My Lady Midnight please come and take my soul
Cause my soul is broken

These knives n’ pens are piercing the veil of my soul!!!
