Cryptic Love Notes
The shadows whispering
In the silence I now sing
Hold me to their flames
The only comfort in this lasting pain
The words that can’t convey
The screaming in this place
Are love notes for the void
The only home left as I’m destroyed
Darkness in the light
Glowing in the night
Eyes that hold me still
The gazing truth my heart just can not kill
Nothing else to say
It still won’t go away
A stranger in my dreams
I wake to find that I no longer breathe
A horror that remains
It just won’t be erased
The loss of all that’s true
Breaks me down, but I’m still lost in you
Far too much to share
My reflection isn’t there
Sanity is gone
Another life where I just don’t belong
