Villanelle One xx
xx Back
the lights of hope are out no matter where i go
a bulb could not suffice this darkening sky
i have become empty and strangely bitter too
venegance is what will strangle you until you cry

veins like jumper cables try to establish a pulse
the more the heart beats, the less blood will flow
i have become perplexed within, being this far lost
the lights of hope are out no matter where i go

close my eyes and i begin to take in my very end
a breath so refreshing even though it feels i will die
i wont recall the feeling of this moment ever again
venegance is what will strangle you until you cry

never could another sentence soothe my lone woe
the happy sensors have been burned like black toast
and though i feel inside the noise is beating all i know
the lights of hope are out no matter where i go

colliding into my conscious is unnerving regret flow
i've tried to fight, to beat it inside--now i will hide
the lights of hope are out no matter where i go
venegance is what will strangle you until you cry
