Many become lost in the darkness...
Inside the silhouetted darkness
Swims a mind in repose
Lost in a microcosm of frustration
Thoughts and dreams are juxtaposed

Madness is always reaching
As feral rage grows and swells
Exposed wounds gush life
From wrist phlebotomized in Hell

Inside the abyss of a breaking mind
Dreams implode and passions die
Nightmares propagate and foster
Listening to hope's whimpering cries

Cloaked in a endless darkness
People struggle and beg for peace
Slashing, drinking, and doping
Fantasizing that death will give release

Within the silhouetted mind
Lives nightmares and anguished fears
Hopes are dashed upon desperation
Because people feel no love is near
