The Darkness Rises Once More

How could you forget I’m standing with my back against the wall?

Maybe someday I will find that one thing that makes me feel how I want to feel.

The darkness rises once more…

The snake behind me hisses what my disadvantage could be,

The blood before me opens up my heart again, and I feel this coming over like a storm again

- Considerately.

I’ll hold myself together with rubber bands and chewing gum

- Skinned up knees and soft lips.

Don’t believe everything you hear.
