The silence in my mind grows ever louder It feels like an ever-growing tide, slowly eroading away at me My memories, my light, my hope, my soul Are slowly being drowned out by the silence I cry out, "My friend,   why is it you overrule me? Turning rest into emptiness,   solace into isolation." It answered: "Fool! You wanted to be everything, so now you are nothing." And I, who gave up myself   to be everything they needed,   can only listen as Silence speaks for me

Shutting down
The silence in my mind grows ever louder It feels like an ever-growing tide, slowly eroading away at me My memories, my light, my hope, my soul Are slowly being drowned out by the silence I cry out, "My friend,   why is it you overrule me? Turning rest into emptiness,   solace into isolation." It answered: "Fool! You wanted to be everything, so now you are nothing." And I, who gave up myself   to be everything they needed,   can only listen as Silence speaks for me
Maybe I died years ago And only now does the rot show Or maybe I killed myself And left behind a faceless child
