Inside this shell I will no longer see The sun wrapping the fading moon Indomitably defying the wolf's groom Slowly kissing the slope on the high Til its glory & brilliance burst in the sky Inside this shell I will no longer hear The descant of the birds Sitting on the shivering trees Whether they're happy or sober Doesn't matter which sounds better Inside this shell I will no longer see How the mist of the morning dew Gives breath to the flower anew After the Night showered tears upon Beautiful crystals on the lawn it has become inside this shell I choose to be alone Because i am not that strong That people thought me I am And the agony can stay until I say Even if the pain goes thru my vein I am tired to prove myself So I'd just hide inside this shell And I'd live the life I want And not what others tell As I am drained in  complete exhaustion Living someone else' expectations I have helped others like a candle My flame lighted their way But while their path is getting bright Mine is becoming dark And slowly my light is fading The white candle is now melting...

Inside this shell
Inside this shell I will no longer see The sun wrapping the fading moon Indomitably defying the wolf's groom Slowly kissing the slope on the high Til its glory & brilliance burst in the sky Inside this shell I will no longer hear The descant of the birds Sitting on the shivering trees Whether they're happy or sober Doesn't matter which sounds better Inside this shell I will no longer see How the mist of the morning dew Gives breath to the flower anew After the Night showered tears upon Beautiful crystals on the lawn it has become inside this shell I choose to be alone Because i am not that strong That people thought me I am And the agony can stay until I say Even if the pain goes thru my vein I am tired to prove myself So I'd just hide inside this shell And I'd live the life I want And not what others tell As I am drained in  complete exhaustion Living someone else' expectations I have helped others like a candle My flame lighted their way But while their path is getting bright Mine is becoming dark And slowly my light is fading The white candle is now melting...
