Darkness falls,
A cloud of black covers all.
A shadow of hate follows,
I run before I'm swallowed.
A crash of thunderous failure,
A flash of blinding light lures.
It's all in my head I'm told,
At that point I knew. You're cold.
I'm doing this to myself,
Drop the issue, place it on a shelf.
Never to be touched again,
Though I know I will now and then.
Forget? How could I?
Say that again, and look me in the eye!
Tell me I need to forget,
Lose me, then you'll regret.
How could you say such things?
Knowing full well the pain it brings.
I can't look at you, not for a while,
It'll be some time before I smile.
You've hurt me deeply,
I never knew you'd stoop so steeply.
You say you'd crumble without me,
I tell you now, I already crumbled without her.
