My Penalty
The darkness has taken over
Darkness of pain I cannot endure
My light has sunken in
This truth became my sin
Questionable love caused my penalty
My worst dream fades into reality
The monsters I hide will soon escape
Slowly ripping me to reveal my fate
Faded dreams and a empty shell
The mask I will wear hiding me well
A abyss consumes me once more
Thrown in a room with a locked door
You shut me out and break me down
One wrong turn
Old habits return
So I may suffer without a sound
Sit and watch as I hit the ground
My hardening cold heart
Slowly goes back to the start
Blade, oh blade, lead me astray
Hold off the pain just one more day
