As the tears eclipse the last of the light
And the grey blends into the dark of night
With not a single star shining to see
Nor a reason for I still to be

Unveil the truth with many a lie fraught
In ugliness, it holds a beauty of sorts
Water turns to ice and moonlight to stone
As the naked truth sits upon it's regal throne

I push upon the surface that traps me beneath
Yet the fortress is strong with hatred and grief
The air runs out and I can only breathe blood
You laugh at me mercilessly, as you so should

A thief, it steals across the black
Takes away all method of finding my way back
I scream a scream heard only by the moon
And a killer in my skull in the shadows does loom

Punching at the skin that confines me away
Hating the life it forces me through every day
And as my tears eclipse the last of the light
You laugh as you watch me, overcome by the night
