Black
Between light and dark
I find myself there again
Holed up with nowhere to go
Too afraid of what I show
Knowing what lies ahead
Not wanting to go anymore
Falling behind in every way
Giving up is too easy to do
But that is what I want
I really don't care anymore
I am ready to close this door
Lay down and go to sleep
Never to laugh never to weep
