when darkness seems too much to bear
when fear tries to tell me not to care
loneliness keeps me crying in the night
when fog in my mind obscures the light…
when terror takes my will and I can’t breathe
and in the depths, the feelings churn and seethe
humanity keeps me crying in the night
I can’t stand to see myself in flight
I can let it go
and I will let it go
when I just feel my pain, it tells me what I need to know
then… I can let it go…
when losses hit too soon again
and in my shock, I cling to what has been
the dark night tries to take away my soul
I fight for illusions… for control…
I can let it go
and I will let it go
when I just feel my pain, it tells me what I need to know
then… I can let it go…
