Darkness

She shakes and shivers. The nights, they are so cold now.... -This is based on a true story.- The chills are haunting, and the silence is taunting, The darkness is what she deserves. The shadows, they chase her Her memory escapes her But darkness is what she deserves The halls are empty and hallow And the truth is hard to swallow, But the darkness is what she deserves. Her eyes are tired, Her head is aching, Her body's numb and her heart is breaking, Because darkness is what she deserves. He's showed her once, and told her twice, she knows that she's not worth the fight, and that darkness is what she deserves. But he held her close, and whiped her tears, and ran her far away from here, no darkness is what she deserves. He loved her once, He loves her still, She's worth the fight, She's worth the kill, There's no darkness for her anymore.... How simple life would be if all of this were true, but there is no happy endings...No, not ever for you. So let the wounds split open, let the pain run deep, let your mind forget, no happy memories to keep. It all ends here right now, It all ends here tonight, The anger and frustration, the fury and the fight. Let all of yourself go, make sure all of it unheard, because the darkness, my friend, is the only thing we deserve. [Forgetting how to breath might possible save your life.]
