Darkness

There's a phantom Following me home I’m overwhelmed with fear I’m always alone This place is so dreary I feel stuck here Like I’m forced To live here with no escape I want to run But my legs won’t move It’s like my feet Are glued down He would poke fun At me But he didn’t know His words were like razor blades Slowly tearing me apart Every day there Was killing me Now I have a bitter heart I feel like this darkness Is swallowing me whole I feel like it’s goal Is to kill me This darkness is turning Me into something I dread An insensitive loner I feel like I’ll end up dead There is no end To this pain It just gets worse I could never face my fears I have no friend To rely on I am stuck Crying bloody tears
