Fallen Angel

When darkness surrounds me and there's no one around

Nothing but silence in the background

I can see the faces of the forgotten and the lost

Sorrow and hate fill my thoughts

All of the world has turned to hell

And All I can think of is how I fell

Dear god please save me from myself

I know I have nothing to fear but fear itself

Yet I still fear the world and all it inhabits 

Will I ever be free from this awful madness

I am waiting for the one who will come and save me

He is my world I say as the darkness takes me.
