Shadow's Sharp

All alone in my world of despair,
Hope is lost in everything,
Wish I could just feel joy sometime,
But that’s just a fantasy,
Crying out for a savior of some kind,
Something to eat at my grief,
But all that I know are shadows,
With the Shadow’s sharp,
I save my soul but waste away,
The shadow’s sharp,
Tears through sorrow cuts through flesh,
With the dark I shall abide,
Into the night I escape,
With shadow’s sharp,
I prepare to disembark,
To a journey of lost souls,
Wander through the dark,
Stumble and fall,
The shadow’s sharp my guide,
There’s no where hurt can hide,
The shadow’s sharp cuts it away,
In the morning I shall rise,
Cover up the remains,
Pretend like nothing happened,
Just another day,
Still have to face my problems,
Something the dark can’t solve,
Just makes me want to go further,
Into the night I wander,
With shadow’s sharp,
I stumble through the dark,
I eat away at myself,
My body bleeds, my mind aches,
For now I forget my hurt,
But soon there will be scars,
And my problems won’t fade,
