When I was younger I needed to slow down.
Now I'm over the hill.
Paying for my youthful transgressions.
This life has taught me many hard lessons.
Solitude has taught me gratitude.
Loneliness has taught me you enter and leave this world alone.
I've been waiting for dawn, but the light is already gone.
So leave me to my darkness.
Leave me in peace.
Leave me to my misery.
My tormented mind is weary and I'm afraid sanity I can no longer find.
