lyrics
Long has it been since the warmth of optimism
Nurtured my skin with its fiery glow
Luminosity that seemingly dims as years pass
Shrouded by deprecated self-worth
Seeds of beautiful flowers planted by kind hands
Having sprung and bloomed from the soil of my heart
Nourished through the gentle care of hope's radiance
Petals fall beneath a never-ending eclipse
Withered decay seeps into the soil
Wasteland fostered by my own umbra
Chill and remorse permeate the air
As the earth below brews hostility
Why does this heart yearn to rid my mind of despair
While contempt courses through my own veins
How could I cultivate warm and fertile pastures
When loving myself is a field of thorns to cross
Every attempt pierces flesh and bone
As I'm challenged against insufficiency
When one meter of ground is traversed
Ten more of stabbing and sinking extend beyond sight
I look sheepishly for anyone's help
But compulsion has left me all alone
Mud and bugs flow into my gaping mouth
Crying as sludge comforts me for all time
