Darkness inside

The darkness has swallowed the rest of me
its true... they've gotten the best of me.

i feel tired- yet can't sleep
sad- but won't weep

i feel I've failed
shortly sailed
i feel alone
but cry no moan

inside i shutter and die,
but never utter a cry

on the outside i live without a care
but the inside, i truly cannot bare

on the outside i live, wild, and free
on the in side i crumble you just can't see
now you know the true me.
