I walked that night
Til' my soul had finished
Spilling out heartfelt tears
I didn't want this
I had never wanted it
Yet here I am
An outcast, a burden
I was shunned
Since the day of my birth
Yet I had found a way to live
Without everyone realizing who I was
But now as the sun shines
Upon my nearly lifeless figure
Everyone knows the truth
Of what's behind this mask
Of lies and untold secrets
And now I realize that deep
Inside of me all these years
I had known that this was
What I truly deserved
Being who I am
And what I've done
To stay secret and anonymous
I've been a slinking shadow
Through everyone's lives
But now I am a beam of light
In those lives my darkness had merely touched
As I feel death lap at my feet
I welcome it with regret
For what I've done
