Down a long, lonely, dark dirt road,
i drive
Sometimes i wonder if i'm still alive
Darkness in my heart thrives
Wishing i had other peoples lives
in my heart i am alone
I am alone in my darkness
I wonder where the light is
Where the laughter, color, happiness is
where my family, friends, real life is
the darkness is my home
and in my home i have no sense of up, down, left, or right
I don't even know day from night
i might as well have no sight,
my home is empty, it has no light
in my home the darkness drones
the darkness is so quiet it's loud
arround me the soundless noise crowds
a broken heart the darkness shrowds
this darkness almost makes hate crowd
my darkness,
lonely darkness
all by myself
