In the Maw of Pain
All alone, all alone, all alone…
Starving and deprived
Of life
Staring into emptiness
Barren and cruel
A desert of thought
Beat upon by two suns
Fear and pain rule this place
No companions to take my side
No guide to help me through
This place is taking its toll
Slowly my sanity unravels
Strand by strand

What’s there to do
I’m in the maw of pain
Looking death in the face
Lost in the maw of pain

All alone, all alone, all alone…
Kicking a screaming
To no avail
Fighting the undertow
So useless
Drowning in this sea of anger
Can’t stay afloat
To succumb to my pain
Is merely an eventuality
The inevitability of my end
Is far from guised
My mind caves in black
And I sink under
