Seems I've already been here before, searching endlessly in a void A man trapped by the eyes of those who still see a boy I guess I'm still yet to grow There's an echo bouncing off the wall; back and forth Swinging by, and whispering a sweet lie; it could be the monsters, or just the voices in my head Either way, none of those sounds playing, leaves me feeling a little bit scared I should say a prayer, but I've preyed on so much precious time, I'm only left chasing the few seconds I have left While being stuck in between an acute happiness, and all the feelings of being depressed There isn't an angle to explain how loudly I want to scream at people's faces Describing the colours of their aura, mostly in their displaying hatred But then again, it may come out a little racist I've come to find myself writing love letters to the dark And the result: the ugliness of the morning to see such a beauty, of my dark art                        ...bite your tongue,                           as there are no other words                           to speak of this    Just quietly shut your mind, and open your eyes                              This is the unholy piece

Love letters to the dark (Unholy)
Seems I've already been here before, searching endlessly in a void A man trapped by the eyes of those who still see a boy I guess I'm still yet to grow There's an echo bouncing off the wall; back and forth Swinging by, and whispering a sweet lie; it could be the monsters, or just the voices in my head Either way, none of those sounds playing, leaves me feeling a little bit scared I should say a prayer, but I've preyed on so much precious time, I'm only left chasing the few seconds I have left While being stuck in between an acute happiness, and all the feelings of being depressed There isn't an angle to explain how loudly I want to scream at people's faces Describing the colours of their aura, mostly in their displaying hatred But then again, it may come out a little racist I've come to find myself writing love letters to the dark And the result: the ugliness of the morning to see such a beauty, of my dark art                        ...bite your tongue,                           as there are no other words                           to speak of this    Just quietly shut your mind, and open your eyes                              This is the unholy piece
