I wandered in a place full of grief,
Why do lost souls souls surrender in defeat?
Am I one of them? Am I lost?
And will I soon fade into dust?
The scars of the past already faded,
I tried to hide it, I've always hated.
When will the pain in my chest heal?
'Cause I wanted this nightmare to be over for real
I smiled at them, a fake one
But when will this pretending be done?
To be honest, I don't know.
I forgot how to smile like I used to show.
If you only know what I remember,
Every time I cried in the shower,
Every time I see my reflection,
I pity myself and hate this vision.
I tried to forget the pain I am having
I can feel the alcohol in my stomach burning.
I felt so wasted, but never been this happy,
Although I knew that this was only temporary.
Who deserves this kind of sadness?
Should I show love a little less?
Now I learnt that the world is unfair,
I suddenly became numb and didn't care.
This was a selfish act but it helps to heal,
Be the heartless monster or be the one who's killed.
Now I know why the lost souls surrendered,
Pain i always present, which is why it didn't matter.
Pain isn't new, but what is this?
Should I stop now or should I take the risk?
I finally decided to feed my curiosity,
And then I saw myself, stepping into reality.
