Once more, I stand upon the edge of despair,
Where shadows whisper, and hope's thread tears.
I’ve fought the battles, broken and undone,
But now, once more, I face the setting sun.

The weight of years, the scars that never fade,
A heart once mended now begins to trade
Its fragile peace for pain’s familiar kiss,
A love gone wrong, a haunting, endless bliss.

I fought for air, for moments free of chains,
Escaping the madness, the tortured pains.
But now I’m pulled back into the same abyss,
A soul once saved, now drowning in the mist.

The thoughts return, a silent, cruel parade,
A psychotic dance, where light begins to fade.
I’m lovesick, broken, torn by all I’ve known,
A maniac lost in a place I once had grown.

The mirror cracks, and I see fragments sharp,
Reflections of a soul that’s lost its spark.
I begged for freedom, yet I found a cage,
And now, I stand, consumed by endless rage.

It took me years to climb from dark despair,
To heal the wounds, to find my breath in air.
But now I’m trapped within a twisted game,
A heart once whole, now fractured just the same.

And though I ache and tremble in this night,
I wonder if I’ll ever see the light.
For love has turned to madness in my veins,
A cycle spun, repeating all my pains.
