Fighting my demons,
Alone in the dark.
Chasing a mirage,
Leaving no mark.
Out in the darkness,
Out in the night,
Nothing can reach me,
Nothing but blight.
No kiss of a lover,
Embrace of a friend,
Here in this darkness,
I see my life’s end.
Half heart in ruins,
Other half taken,
Where lost was love,
When I was forsaken?
How do I live now?
How do I cry?
Laughter eludes me
Tears run dry.
No gods left to look up,
Up at the sky,
Darkness, embrace me!
Love was a lie.
