Faded Soul

The light starts fading to where it doesn't shine.. 
Not even a glow or flicker there's nothing left behind just The pain of night..
Darkness comes quickly and devours all time.. 
Alone in this world misled by its lies.. 
A once happy soul just left to cry..
In The pain of night..
So a temporary fix helps her get by.. 
A little escape to take her high.. 
Floating away till she reaches the sky in the pain
Of night..
In her own clouded world up so high.. 
Its the only time she doesn't have to hide.. 
Where truth and reality finally collide, it comes to a point where she has to decide.. 
Come down of this cloud or continue the ride in the pain of night..
She looks all around and then to her side, realizing while up here its just her disguise.. 
For that moment in time she feels alive, but soon her pain is verified by the DARK, COLD, EMPTINESS that still resides in the pain of night..
So she falls back and shuts her eyes.. 
Tired of this life, she continues the ride in the pain of night..
