As Soon As Darkness Falls

Left alone in the dark, blocked out of all light.
I'm just trying to escape, no longer wanting to fight.
My life is a cage, I'm locked inside.
My hope is all gone, along with my pride.

Tossed feelings inside, like the waves of the Red Sea.
My life is just a mess, is that what’s meant to be?
Will I be rescued from my tormented heart?
Will I make it to the finish line, without ever passing the start?

Confused thoughts in my head, awaiting to be let go.
Everyone thinks I'm just a slut, like I'm all just for show.
Anorexic little whore, a stupid fat bitch.
Will they make up their mind, my life isn’t a stitch.

They think I have it all easy, like it's laid out just for me.
But it's not, and I show it out, real plainly to see.
I'm not ashamed of my life, or to walk through the halls.
I'll just sleep it all off, as soon as darkness falls.
