I cry out to old pain Erupting inside my mind. Thoughts, driving me insane, I don't have enough time. I cannot let go As there is no ease. The strife knocks me down Begging on my knees. Cringing on bitter memories That only hold me back I lie here in silence As my whole world turns black. I find an ounce of hope Shining in my palm. I stare at it reluctantly My heart beating calm.

An Ounce to Keep the Pain Away
I cry out to old pain Erupting inside my mind. Thoughts, driving me insane, I don't have enough time. I cannot let go As there is no ease. The strife knocks me down Begging on my knees. Cringing on bitter memories That only hold me back I lie here in silence As my whole world turns black. I find an ounce of hope Shining in my palm. I stare at it reluctantly My heart beating calm.
