Lost within my mind As chaos ensues Don't leave me stranded The memories I can't lose I need to feel My scars so deep inside As I wallow in the pain Reminding me I'm alive Fragility rattles My layers within The core of defying me Where it all began I open myself up As I die again I choke just to breathe You seep through my skin I can't be in the dark Alone I"LL break Feed upon my demons Tell me lies to my face Pain buried deep I will never be whole It will never leave Defeated, I let go Paralyzed in fear Alone in my mind I rip out my heart I can't leave it behind Tears of acid rain Burn through my flesh I'm never enough Always second best Regrets have stolen My memories decay Don't steal from me my horrors Slowly I will fade I give you my emotions Dark and intense As you have forsaken all I am I have no defense I lie within the ashes The darkness my home Devoured of memories You have taken control

DON'T LEAVE ME ALONE
Lost within my mind As chaos ensues Don't leave me stranded The memories I can't lose I need to feel My scars so deep inside As I wallow in the pain Reminding me I'm alive Fragility rattles My layers within The core of defying me Where it all began I open myself up As I die again I choke just to breathe You seep through my skin I can't be in the dark Alone I"LL break Feed upon my demons Tell me lies to my face Pain buried deep I will never be whole It will never leave Defeated, I let go Paralyzed in fear Alone in my mind I rip out my heart I can't leave it behind Tears of acid rain Burn through my flesh I'm never enough Always second best Regrets have stolen My memories decay Don't steal from me my horrors Slowly I will fade I give you my emotions Dark and intense As you have forsaken all I am I have no defense I lie within the ashes The darkness my home Devoured of memories You have taken control
Sometimes the darkness steals the best of who we are.
