The Music Plays So Hauntingly

The music plays so hauntingly every night,

as the tears well up inside.

I can only see the darkness,

I fear to never see the light.

I feel dead inside,

I have no hope left alive.

Everyone else, so happy and free,

when I'm all alone,

no one to comfort me.

Emptiness and despair are dark around me.

Why has all the light disappeared?

I need to be free,

free of all the sadness.

I need to be me,

despite all opposition.

I need to have a knife,

to plunge intotheir cold unfeeling hearts.

I need somebody to hold me,

I need to feel alive,

to get rid of this lethargy.

I feel nothing,

the pain slides right off.

I want to hear your voice,

say my name just one more time.

I want to forget,

the part you had,

in me being everything I am.

I want to be separate,

away from your memory.

I can never be free,

I see you everywhere.

You mask haunts me,

leaving me so empty.

Nothing can fill,

the hole left bleeding in my heart.

You are with them,

not with me,

not where you belong.

I may join you soon.

But for now,

the music plays so hauntingly,

I listen to it every night.
