The Epitaph

Oh can't you see, the darker side of me 
Do you feel the emptiness that plagues my soul 
I'm a broken road, there aint no pot of gold 
At the end of my rainbow 

So let darkness come, and wash away my soul 
For there's nothing left of value here to behold 
It's such a heavy load, I'm broken, tired, and cold 
The epitaph unfolds 

So lay me down in an unmarked grave 
Let me wash away the stains within my name 
No more pain inside, no more hurt no lies 
As I quietly fade away
