Silence My Voice

Where is the light in an abyss?
Where is the comfort in death?
Give me salvation, give me anything
Give me a reason to draw breath.

The truth of this world is failure
The worth of persistence, despair
Everything's cold and so distant
Please take me away from here.

Cover my eyes, bury my fears
Silence my voice, soften this agony
This emptiness feels like a void
So cold and alone and so hollow inside.

My days have turned to melancholy
My soul crippled, lifeless wreck
I can no longer feel the world around me
Please lay me down and let me rest.
