Blacken my heart
Capture my Soul
All these ways
And I don't know where.
Where to go?
Anger boils my core
Alone I wander
My heart beats softly
And I want to know why
Why it beats on?
Time continues to haunt me
Clinging to the past
It grips me tightly
And I need to know how
How I let go?
Am I found now?
No. Surely I am lost
My nature has left me
It tempted me with a place to go
It whispered why I am here
And then it told me to let go,
by giving into the pain.
I didn't want to listen
Just let me stay here with my questions.
It's comfortable having that control
It's peaceful to live within the known.

Blacken my heart
Capture my Soul
All these ways
And I don't know where.
Where to go?
Anger boils my core
Alone I wander
My heart beats softly
And I want to know why
Why it beats on?
Time continues to haunt me
Clinging to the past
It grips me tightly
And I need to know how
How I let go?
Am I found now?
No. Surely I am lost
My nature has left me
It tempted me with a place to go
It whispered why I am here
And then it told me to let go,
by giving into the pain.
I didn't want to listen
Just let me stay here with my questions.
It's comfortable having that control
It's peaceful to live within the known.
