The pain runs so deep, deep in my heart, deep in my soul
The color that runs deep into my soul is dark and grey
The color that runs in my heart is so cold
The color of my pain that runs so deep is hard
The hurt and pain and the feelings of hollowness
The sadness and anger and loneliness
Deep in my heart, soul, and mind is there
Crying and hiding and holding back
I reach down deep into my hollow soul
Pull out the pain, the anger, and the loneliness
What do I have? Nothing!
The pain hurts so much
How can there be a pain with nothing inside?
Just a shell, just the outside, just the pain
Blood and guts, skin and hair
Are no longer there
Holes in my heart, holes in my head, holes in my soul
See right in front of me
See right through me
See right behind me
See right past me
The hollow shell full of anger
The hollow shell full of pain
The pain is instant
The pain is lasting
The pain will never end
How do I find my voice?
How to find the breath to speak?
Speak the words that tell
Speak the words that will help
How to fill that hollow shell
With love, and peace, and wholeness
The pain that runs so deep
Will always be from anger, from hatred, from long ago
The pain runs so deep, deep in my heart, deep in my soul
The color that runs deep into my soul is dark and grey
The color that runs in my heart is so cold
The color of my pain that runs so deep is hard
