Cradled in the dark, encompassed in lies. Accompanied with the wonderment of despair. A wooden effigy looms over me, an accusing stare. A lock of hair, a piece of clothing, a drop of blood… A creature carved delicately with a scalpel of hate. Its shadow watching over me, crying in my heart. Screaming in my head, a cacophony of silence. A technicolor dreamscape painted over my eyes. A horrified soliloquy my only respite. Memoirs of innocence long forgotten. Wherein lies my salvation? Love dies, and I along with it. Broken hope, shattered dreams, scars unmended. Fields of pain harvested in my soul. Catatonia takes precedence and I follow it.

Why?
Cradled in the dark, encompassed in lies. Accompanied with the wonderment of despair. A wooden effigy looms over me, an accusing stare. A lock of hair, a piece of clothing, a drop of blood… A creature carved delicately with a scalpel of hate. Its shadow watching over me, crying in my heart. Screaming in my head, a cacophony of silence. A technicolor dreamscape painted over my eyes. A horrified soliloquy my only respite. Memoirs of innocence long forgotten. Wherein lies my salvation? Love dies, and I along with it. Broken hope, shattered dreams, scars unmended. Fields of pain harvested in my soul. Catatonia takes precedence and I follow it.
