A Thousand Years
I haven't eaten in a thousand years
I have lived off my own pain, my sorrow, my tears
I show no love
I show no fear
To me no one can get near
I speak but I am too quiet to hear
Though what I say is quite clear you for whatever reason shut your ears
But please turn away from me, because its not you I need
It is on my own pain I feed.
