Darkness, a once feared enemy
Is now my closest friend
Light, once a welcome remedy
Now leaves me to contend
With relentless pain, my head screams
It will not let me be
My mind fills with frightening dreams
I do not want to see
Nothing wrong, it's all in your head
Fills me with intense fear
Could the day that's filled me with dread
Have, at last, gotten here.
Will it fade away fast or slow
My hold on reality
How long before the team will know
Their eyes filled with pity
I'll make myself do what is right
And not burden anyone
Give myself up to the night,
Head for the setting sun
I'll commit myself, as I've planned
No more this world to roam
My dearest mother close at hand
I'll finally be home.
