S.O.S / Misery

In the growing darkness,
In the drowning rain'
There's nothing left but hardship
Nothing left but pain.

Why live? When no-one cares,
When no-one sees the dying soul within,
When far and wide this guilty mind
Is filled with sin, with sin, with sin?

A withered shell of nothing
Alone I stand with blackened eyes,
Dark hair streaming in the wind
As the spirit inside dies.

Can you not see the darkness,
That hides beneath a surface bright?
Can you not hear the broken sobs,
That sound deep into night?

Can no-one see the truth
That hides behind this joyous shell?
Can no-one truly understand,
How life can turn to hell?
