How To Crawl
Alone in the dark again,
No one I can call friend.
I am naked my soul is bared,
I wonder if anyone ever cared.
People smile at me as I go down the street,
But all I can do is frown at those I meet.
There are no happy thoughts left to think...
I am standing on the brink...
Of a pain which I cannot dispel,
It is a place I have grown to know well.
If there is any hope at all, it lies with you,
Only you can pull my soul through.
Don't give up on me...
Hold tightly to me...
Don't let me fall...
For I have forgotten how to crawl.
My way out of the abyss,
The sight of your face used to bring me bliss.
Now I am surrounded by dark and evil things,
It is demons the darkness brings.
I am begging you help me out of this place,
Its horrors I can no longer face.
Don't give up on me...
Hold tightly to me...
Don't let me fall...
For I have forgotten how to crawl.
