Darkness

darkness runs beneth the skin
all unill life comes to an end
no one knows where this darkness hides
untill the fear comes to your eyes

light beems through the open glass
but that thought of him using you for just piece of ass
comes in, in just one blast
happiness will never last

trying to put on an act
to hide a simple fact
to hide the pride you lack
the sadness has you on the floor laying on your back

everything just seems so dead
like nothing can live
breathing in the coldness from the shadows of the night
hoping you will see some kind of light

only love can set you free
but that will never be
cause you will never love me
and that i can truly see
