In the Darkness
1 2 3 clear
This is all I can hear
Where i am I don’t know
But why am I white like snow
24 hours later
I aint feeling any greater
Finally waking up now
All I can say is how?
So much pain, trouble, and toil
I should be 6 feet under soil
Why didn’t it work, I was positioned right
I even jumped with all my might
Why am I above ground
I shouldn’t be able to make a sound
Back into the darkness I slip
I keep dreaming of the flip
Why aren’t I long gone
In some plan, am I a pawn
24 hours later
I aint feeling any greater
Waking up now
All I can say is how?
So much pain, trouble, and toil
I should be 6 feet under soil
Why didn’t it work, I was positioned right
I even jumped with all my might
Why am I above ground
I shouldn’t be able to make a sound
With a jolt, I’m up
Fell asleep with an empty cup
But what could make me dream of death gone wrong
Our time apart has grown too long
