Speak of Sorrow - Our Hollow, Our Home

Since when did I call misery friend?

Forever trapped in-between

A ghost in the mirror and feeling myself again

As if I can’t comprehend, is life without meaning

Or am I meaningless?

It takes and takes, as it eats away

Why must it take from you

Why can’t it just take from me?

A burden shared, we must face it together

But now the fires gone out, there’s no flame to save us…

These thoughts, they never subside

Harsh truths, ever growing and growing inside

I swear I’ve fought, I swear I’ve truly tried

But all I see above is darkened skies

Won’t somebody show me…

Show me how to move on, show me how to forget

The ache that lives inside my heart

It’s been there ever since you left

I need a sense of closure, I just need you to see

That I would give up everything

Just to bring you back, bring you back to me

I try to speak up but my words escape me

I’m beginning to think that my demons are heaven sent…

Is this the end?

Coz the pages of this book are burning

I’ve made so many mistakes

Too many to bury them deep in the past

The weight of these words

May as well be the weight of the world

These worn out sheets speak of the life I lead…

The chapters change, but the stories stay the same

You went with the sunshine, left me with the rain…

Solitude, show me the way

You can’t call on a saviour

Who needs to be saved…
