This room is hallow and empty
I needed you to protect me
Far away from the morning light
I'll find the piece of me you left behind
Too scared to shiver, too scarred to care
These actions; imitations of what I think you want to hear

Further I'm sinking in my own thoughts
Bare with me one more second, lead me out, I am caught
You turn your head and walk away
"I wont help you" you mutter on your way
You broke me it's true,
but a broken me is still stronger than a whole you

I'll make my way out, soon enough
I don't need your hand or discouraging thoughts
I'll find you in my darkest hours, then leave you for the light
And I'll take back all my power and whisper to you: "good night".
