Chorus
(I’ve fallen through the cracks
All I can do is laugh (insert sad laugh)
As the earth shakes
And my very existence disintegrates…)

You have left my sight
Hiding in the darkness of night
I’m only able to see
All the things you’ve done for me

You’ve torn off my skin
Wearing your charming Cheshire Grin
You’ve stolen my mind
And left me behind.

You have always known
Why I’m all alone
Thrown in an unbreakable, indestructible abyss
Begging for the Phoenix’s Kiss

(I’ve fallen through the cracks
All I can do is laugh (insert sad laugh)
As the earth shakes
And my existence disintegrates…)

You’ve shackled me to fate
Where I can’t even hate
I want to fight
To somehow reach your light

(Quieter voice, to oneself)
Why did he
Abandoned me?
When he was the one,
The only one

(Louder)
Who could rescue me
From this lonely sea
Of despair
And desolation

(I’ve fallen through the cracks
All I can do is laugh (insert sad laugh)
As the earth shakes
And my existence disintegrates…) X 2 (slowly fading out)
