Do you know.
What torment means.
Is it the sad song.
That darkness sings.
A mournful tune.
To witch the words are long gone.
A shallow feeling.
A depressing song.
Is it empty.
Like a black hole.
Like a deep dark trench.
That will never be full.
Is it pain.
Like a rupturing heart.
Or a poor vein.
Popped with a sharp dart.
A tightening in your chest.
Like your heart had stopped.
Does torment feel.
Like being dropped.
Can you see torment.
In the eyes of man.
Slowly burning.
Like food in a pan.
Is it blood running.
Running from your neck.
When from your dead body.
The bird does peck.
What does torment.
Mean to you.
You'll never know my meaning.
Until you've seen what I've been through.
