Back Into The Dark

Concerning depression, and the ruthless cycle it can kick start

A curse on my lips 

Floating free into the wild

A self-serving exile

Way past the colour spectrum

Where hearts or minds are affected

Pride is the enemy of my truth

I'm afflicted by misery 

All omens are unclear

Shrouded in a veil of uncertainty 

Now allow me back into the night

Starless, scar-less

Or at least somewhere I can't see them 

I'll drift into my welcome sleep

Dreamless, emptiness

My creaking mind is almost broken

A scream silently made

Frightened like a child

Trapped alone in the wild

My mind has been infected

Worse than I ever expected

Pride is the fall of angels

And now there's nothing left

My name's a fading memory

And I'm nearing death 

Now allow me back into the night

Starless, scar-less

Or at least somewhere I can't see them 

I'll drift into my welcome sleep

Dreamless, emptiness

My creaking mind is almost broken
