Drifting, shifting alone
Worn down and drowned
Bought and paid in full
Crimes I didn't commit
Held here wishing
Waiting wanting sitting
Killing the light
Fingers burn to touch
The shadows are kind
Forgotten not bothered
left alone here, peace
Simple and clean
Shattered glass
A loud crash
The world is tumbling down
Coming down on top of me
A lighter black
Fallen upon my darkest
Pale skin scorched
Looks on so bright
Apparition of you
To my world here
Tear stain could of beens
And darkly stories
Truths filter through
A burned hand reaches
The milky flesh of you
Wrap my blackened hands
You too are consumed
In the shadows forgotten
