FROM MOURNING TO NIGHT

my world it used to be black
but now i don't see any color at all
i used to think i could climb back up
but now i drop farther each time i fall

there was a time i could kill the pain
now its all that is left in my soul
ones i had something to hold onto
but it just falls deeper down into
the hole

you are the iron i use to build my cage
you are the cause of all this rage
when all the things i thought i had
were only dreams running in my head
when everything starts to die
and even the dead can cry

my life it was hanging by a thread
but you burned my hope away
i took my mouth and sewed it shut
and i've got so much more to say

once the pieces could be fixed
but no one wants to clean up this mess
my light at the end of the tunnel
is when i was just depressed

you are the bars that surround my cage
im just a sad story on a burning page
cuz all the things i thought i had
are just dark figments in my head
when everything starts to cry
and even the dead can die
