Haunt

ill be alright 
 Just lost to the night 
be standing alone 
thats what life has shown
people say im bad
 but I only feel this sad
want to die
instead i cry
cant beat the dark 
its no walk in the park
the clouds hanging so low
my mind haunts me where ever i go
sins of the  past 
times never last 
tomorrow is lost 
what was the cost 
my soul to forever float
a darkness so remote
Afloat in a river stygian black
Memories dark and on the attack 
Your one time wants
The come back to haunt.
Sometimes just to taunt.
The could of maybe been,
From way back when.
Thought of tomorrows 
Only more sorrow
 No warm heart to borrow
Walk right on by
You wont ever
see me cry.
I say i really dont even really care,
Cause , I really dont dare,
Maybe that doesnt seem fair.
Thats the way it has to be.
Maybe you just cant see,
Another sad memory you will just become
Thats where im coming from.
Ive been sad,
Because at times ive been had,
To bad .
Maybe you was her the one for me.
To bad I'll never see
But im free
What ever the meaning of that be.
