Dark Reflection

"Dark Reflection"


I am shouting but none seem to hear.
Whats a matter with them, do I remind them of their own fear?
Is it my fault that I am plauged in this awful way?
That I only see the darkness in a new day.

And it seems the only thing that rings true is the hurt that runs straight through to the bone
It truly is an awful thing to be all alone
When all they can do is ignore your pleas for help
Because it reminds them too much of once how they felt

What drives me to go on?
Stuttering and stammering and writing silly songs
What goes on in my brain
that helps deflect the pain
Hope that one day I will find
The opposite of my own kind

And it seems the only thing that rings true is the hurt that runs straight through to the bone
It truly is an awful thing to be all alone
When all they can do is ignore your pleas for help
Because it reminds them too much of once how they felt

Though until the sun shines
I must sit in the dark and pine
For the day I escape this self-imposed hell
For the day that I can tell
That love is real
And then I will wake from this bad dream
And realize that I too am a human being
And then all will be well
There will be nothing to sell
And I will have escaped from my living hell

And it seems the only thing that rings true is the hurt that runs straight through to the bone
It truly is an awful thing to be all alone
When all they can do is ignore your pleas for help
Because it reminds them too much of once how they felt
