What happens when someone tries to cover up their pain in the dark.
Living in the dark
the eyes stained red.
Evil poisoning the heart.
All the places I have bled.

Sleep scares me.
But I hide myself in the dark,
Where others scream.
But this is where my thinking starts.

The voices haunt my mind.
The scenses replaying in my eyes.
It’s hard when I cross that line,
and all I can do is cry.

But no person has seen,
the tears rolling down.
What no sleep does to me.
Cause I keep my back turned around.

Truth be told,
they don’t know,
how my heart has gone cold.
Cause I don’t let anything show.

I don’t sleep any more for reasons
because I fear nightmares.
But fear is not a thing I believe in,
So the dark is now what I live in.
