Away

All alone

In the darkness of my room

The sunlight bleeding through my blinds

Like an angel's open wound

On the outside (I seem fine)

But on the inside (I'm not alright)

Every decision that I make

Just seems to be my worst mistake

Away, away from everything that hurts

Away from this pain I feel inside

Struggling to bend these lips

Into a smile I'll soon dismiss

My heart is not a place that I call home

I just want to be alone

Still alone

In the darkness of my room

Staring out between my blinds

Watching the daylight be consumed

Like the joy that (I once felt)

Dealing with these (cards I'm dealt)

When they said that life's not fair

They must have seen me sitting here

It's funny how one moment can change everything

And in a second shatter every hope and dream you have

And leave you with an empty feeling you can't seem to fill

And empty space that only time might heal

Breath in deep and fill this chest with something more, more than emptiness
