Gloom

Home

I light my candles in the wind
Smiling faces and happy places could never mend
All the sorrow left here for something I never had
And all this time I had never been so sad

Please forgive me if I come off wrong
I just need something to make me strong
Happiness is something I long to have
Loneliness is something everyone has

Blackness enters this shaking body
Nothing now can make me holy
Sin is one thing that's always been inside of me
Hatrid is deep down inside me

Friendships are cheap tricks to me
Oh why can't I just plainly see
That I don't have to sorrow for something not around
But I keep looking, hoping I can be found
