Hush little one, don't say a word,
It does no good to speak...

The shadows crawl across colorless walls,
In varying shades of ever-darkening black...

Tell me something true,
Tell me something pure and from the heart...

My words, a torrent of rain in a destructive...
Fall acidly from my tongue with anger and bitter...

Watch this heart shatter,
The broken pieces scatter...

You were the one,
The one who kept me strong...

Line after line, scrawled across the page in blue...
Words bleeding onto paper, describing a life...

The heart grows heavy,
With tears I'm holding back...

I'm trying to hold it together,
Letting the cold numb flood my veins...

Secrets hidden well,
To cover up the shame...

I'm trying to write the final line, to complete my...
Yet as I sing it, I do fear, that I have composed...

If I'm only dreaming,
That means this isn't real...
