Too much the darkness
A haunting bitter trial of smoke in my eyes
Where nights grow so long they swallow days
I'll be afraid of light
That it would expose my many scars

I'm only waiting to hear that voice once again
My sweet and sullen love
My only friend
In a world where we sit on corners under street lights
And believe in everything they say

lead me not astray.....

I'm standing in the light
With my scars exposed
The only thing I've ever known to be real
My years all leading to
My tears becoming stone

My greatest fears
I show to you
