in the dark, in the deep
where she doesn't sleep
she smiles a smile that's just a mask
hiding all the questions she's afraid to ask
because life was too dangerous, too cold
always too fragile for her to hold
there were monsters among men
always about, inviting her in
but she was too afraid
too many mistakes already made
and that was what landed her here
in a place built upon fear
tears and regret made up the walls
bones for the floors, blood for halls
all that's left is loneliness and doubt
she gave up on ever getting out
