i look inside myself
i see the darkness there
pure black emptiness
a vacuum, can’t be filled
i see you sitting there
but you are meaningless
no feelings left inside me
nothing to emit
the blackness grows and grows
gets larger every day
covered eyes soul is lost
soon i’ll die alone
this hell inside of me
never will it die
just to see the light of day
one moment all i seek
i’m falling constantly
in this void unseen
no walls to grab 
no strings to pull
alone i near the end

when will it die
when will it stop
i cannot live
i cannot die
this life it seems
just so empty
impossible
to live you see

and soon the day will come
this day in which i seek
the day that it all ends
this hell inside of me
for there is nothing here
no love can fill this void
just wander aimlessly
through life that seems to drear
to see the joy that’s shared
by others that i see
i wish i could be there
within the beams of love
the light would kill the void
make it disappear
throw down a rope to me
and pull me to the light

there is no light 
that i can see
the void too big
i can’t get free
no chance in sight
my mind not free
cannot this love
free me god please

after all of this i know
there is no light to see
no savior for me now
assured eternal pain
my eyes they have gone blind
too much beauty, none for me
no longer can i see
for emptiness traps me
lost in days of night
just my thoughts within me
nothing penetrates 
the void that grows in me
i wish for just one chance
to see the light of love
knowing that i’ll never
escape the black that’s me
when this all that i must pass
i break through forcibly
and the light strikes my eyes
tears of joy will fill the hole
