In a sepulcher of solitude In a palace made of pain Sunshine finds itself hidden under robes of rain Where happiness feels like rebellion Joy a fetter to bemoan Descending caverns of despair to depths of anguish yet unknown Idols of anxiety to which I give an offering of fear Peace laughs at my weeping while love and satisfaction jeer In a sarcophagus of sadness A casket constructed of my guilt My temple of refuge made of stone Is ground into sardonic silt
