Black Hole
You float on high
In the outer space
Time passing by
Into the endlessness
You are brighter than the stars
You outshine them all
With the power in your head
You never gonna fall.
What can crush you?
While you're lost in the blue
The ecstasy subsides
To be replaced by an intense pain.
You wonder because you know no reason
You can’t see it, you feel it building up
The strong gravity
Pulling you into it.
You try to fight it, you try to pretend
You still rule the universe
But inside you fear it is going to end
Someday too soon.
You are near a black hole
Swallowing you into darkness
Into hopelessness and defeat
Tearing you apart
You put a smile on your face
You can’t let them know you lost.
Nobody knows, nobody could see
They thought you left for a faraway galaxy
You suffer in silence, till it engulfs you wholly.
