Devoid Of Light - The Drowning

Who knows what we tell the dark

When shadows close around blotting, out

Our only light our only hope

Do you long, to be more than this

This life deludes between the days

Await release without hope again and again

In the Darkness shadows in mourning

Realms of silence lead the night

I am nobody’s child, a ragged creature

Impoverished at your behest in my silence

When there’s no warmth left in the sun

As the days draw by when we hide

In the world in the darkness

Shadows mourning, lead the night

Here where I hide without your compassion

In a world devoid of warmth

In a world devoid of light

Is the face that deludes my perfection

Or my perversion continually turning

Towards the sky over and over again and again
