Blackhole Inside
I've got a black hole inside of me
 Oh I'm empty inside
 I'm lost in the darkness, there is a light
 but I'll never reach it
 The sides of my heart scratched up
 As I try to claw my way out
 I can live without you
 or anyone
 I can live without my home
 but oh I want to be home
 Help me find my way
 Is there anyone out there?
 It feels like everything is moving in ten different directions
 and oh I can't see anything, what happened to the sun 
 it used to shine so bright, it used to seep into my bones
 The darkness has won, if you can see me
 than you must be as dark 
 and deep down in the pit
 as I am.
 There is no gravity here, just free-falling 
 in a sky with no stars.
 Or am I just blind to beauty these days
 I cannot hear my own screams or the words of others,
 though maybe I am deaf to terror and comfort all the same
 It all tastes so boring, there will be a spark for a moment, 
 but it fades along with the rest of my memories
 Warm or cold neither matters, nothing is good enough
 Nothing is as good as feeling your weight against me,
 holding me as if you'd put me and you back together
 Layer by layer, piece by piece
 You took my emotions and threw them to the wind with your own
 So now we're both mere shells of human beings with robot hearts
 and the black-hole has taken all my energy and light
 I am merely a facade, my true darkness hasn't reached you yet
 You still see me as I was, soon you will see
 The light will fade.
 I was not a beautiful supernova, it was a slow burn, 
 then in the blink of an eye I was a gone, 
 I collapsed in on myself
 and bad knees would not support the weight of myself, 
 the world on my shoulders, 
 the colorless heart in my chest and the pounding brain in my head.
 There is no meaning, what are the use of words and love
 but to dismantle what's left of my life-force
 There are no footholds, I cannot reach your outreached hand
 Your light does not impact my shadow, not even when you're near
 I am where the monsters hide in the daylight.
 Won't someone help me put up the good fight?
