I was betrothed to sadness
When I was still in the womb
I befriended the Shadows
I made peace with the Gloom

I was born into fear
So I longed for the tomb
I had already greeted death
I was so young I met him too soon

I learned to grieve and suffer alone
And to cease when they enter the room
I latched on to fragments of Hope
Though I always honored my groom

I sought out the sunlight
But danced with the Moon
I found peace in the Starlight
When all the Shadows Loom

That is where you found me
That's when our love did bloom
You changed my life completely
I finally divorced the voices of Doom
