Darkness
How far can I run until I lose myself...
How far will you go to find me?
I'm standing on the edge of this darkness...
It's reaching, trying to consume me.
My eyes are glazed over...
Everyone is looking right past me.
The voices in my head...
They scream for me to jump.
I keep looking down...
The peace the darkness offers beckoning me.
And as I start to slip I hear you call my name.
You see me-trying to end my pain.
You grab my hand and pull me back...
Now I'm confused...I don't know where I'm at.
The peace I wanted...now out of reach...
The love I was starved for-being lavished on me.
And I know I don't deserve it...
You see I don't understand.
Though my heart is filled with love...
It is still the darkness that's pushing me over the edge.
And the voices still beckon...
The darkness still calls.
And another voice answers them...
It's mine-as I start to fall.
