Sadness fills his lonely heart,
As they kiss and drift apart,
Nothing left where once was love,
Lost within the stars above,
Madness fills his fragile mind,
As his dreams are left behind,
Nothing left of who he was,
Shadows follow all he does,
Gladness fills his weary soul,
As he gives up all control,
Nothing left to keep him here,
Dark tides wash away his fear.
