Tonight I'm so alone…
This sorrow takes a hold…
Don't leave me here so cold…
(Never want to be so cold)
The voice in the back of my head screams,
Raging amongst all of the shattered hopes and dreams
As the sideways city begins to crumble.
Your touch used to be so kind,
Your touch used to give me life,
I've waited all this time,
I've wasted so much time…
I pull away from that me inside.
Run, run faster, trip and fall.
Don't leave me alone
'Cause I barely see at all
Don't leave me alone, I'm…
Stinging palms announce the new absence of skin,
It hurts, not the physical pain, but deeper.
Falling in the black,
Slipping through the cracks,
Falling to the depths, can I ever go back?
Dreaming of the way it used to be…
Can you hear me?
The screams come again, louder this time…
A core of hatred eclipsed by anguish,
My pale reflection watches me fall,
Flailing, left alone in obscurity.
Falling in the black,
Slipping through the cracks,
Falling to the depths, can I ever go back?
Falling inside the black…
Falling inside… falling inside the black…
That taunting, two-toned voice calls out,
But I still can't hear what it says.
You were my source of strength…
I've traded everything
That I love for this one thing…
(Stranded in the offering)
Fading, falling, being pulled to the shadows,
Don't leave me here like this…
Can't hear me scream from the abyss…
And now I wish for you, my desire…
Ghostly hands steadies my shoulders,
Determination set in feral eyes.
Don't leave me alone…
'Cause I barely see at all…
Don't leave me alone, I'm…
It's not over yet, we both know it.
Sheer opposites, two parts of a whole,
Staring deep into each other's gaze…
Falling in the black...
Slipping through the cracks...
We'll fight on, together this time,
Until death decides to part us…
Falling in the black…
Slipping through the cracks…
Falling to the depths, can I ever go back?
Dreaming of the way it used to be..
Can you hear me?
Falling in the black…
Slipping through the cracks…
Falling to the depths, can I ever go back?
Falling inside the black…
Can you hear me?
Falling inside the black…
Can you hear me?
Falling inside the black…
Can you hear me?
Falling inside…
Falling inside, falling inside the black…
We'll fight.
The song is Falling Inside the Black by Skillet. This is my first time writing a songific, but please feel free to constructively criticize to help me get better! Not entirely sure where this came from. Just jumped on me in the middle of my geometry test - hence the angsty-ness. I hate math. With a passion.
