"A soul adrift, lost in the haze
A heart once full, now but a daze
The world outside, a blur of pain
A mind that's racing, but cannot gain
The highs of life, now but a memory
Crushed by the weight of misery
Tears fall like rain, a sorrow so true
A cry for help, but what to do?
In darkness, I search for the light
A guiding star, to lead me through the night
But like a mirage, it vanishes in air
Leaving me with nothing, but despair
My heart is heavy, my spirit worn
The world is moving, but I am torn
From the joy I once knew, to this darkest place
Where the only solace, is a lonely space
So I'll wander here, in this desolate land
Searching for a hand, to understand
And maybe someday, I'll find my way
Out of this darkness, into a brighter day"
"In this hollow space, I search for a sound
A whisper of hope, a voice to be found
But the echoes of pain, they linger on
A haunting reminder, of what's been gone
My heart is a flame, that's lost its fire
A soul that's weary, and tired of desire
The world outside, it moves so fast
But I'm stuck in the shadows, forever to last
I yearn for a touch, a gentle breeze
A soothing balm, for my weary pleas
But like a dream, it vanishes in air
Leaving me with nothing, but a hollow stare
In this darkest night, I search for the light
A beacon of hope, to guide me through the fight
And maybe someday, I'll find my way
Out of this darkness, into a brighter day
Where the sun will shine bright, and the birds will sing
And my heart will heal, and my soul will take wing
But until then, I'll hold on to the pain
And cherish the memories, like a sweet, sweet rain"
