Light shines bright to guide my way.
It keeps me strong for one more day.
Nights aren't as long as they used to be,
yet I fail to tame these haunting memories.
In the future you'll never see,
never see what you've done to me,
made me cry day after day,
I'll make you hurt, I'll make you pay.
In the past you've tried so hard
to make my life the wild card,
I dare you to see
just what it is you've done to me.
Only wishing for this closure
of your illicit exposure
yet I refuse to cry,
lift my eyes to the frozen sky.
In the future you'll never know,
never know what I've become,
broken off from this wretched world
my blood still flows but I am numb.
The object of your affection
expressed through warped perceptions.
Victimized by self-destruction
subject to your soul's corruption.
Choking on the rasping words
of what's been left unsaid,
beneath the subdued surface,
waiting for this skin to shed.
Light shines bright to guide my way.
It keeps me strong for one more day.
Nights aren't as long as they used to be,
yet I fail to tame these haunting memories.
My eyes are black and blue,
lonely worn out and confused.
My body left defiled
from your touch, so volatile.
Now the days aren't as bleak,
as bleak as they once were,
but I still can't rest a**ured,
I don't think you'll ever learn.
Light shines bright to guide my way.
It keeps me strong for one more day.
Nights aren't as long as they used to be,
yet I fail to tame these haunting memories.
