As the light starts to fade,
Who will be there?

Will they leave you?
Will they let you morph into the shadows?

As the voices start to scream,
Who will help silence them?

Will they leave you insane?
Will they let the screams bury you?

As the hope starts to fly away,
Who will be there to catch it?

Will they let you sink?
Will they let you down?

As the weather starts to grow cold,
Who will keep you warm?

Will they let your heart grow frozen?
Will they let you break?

As the thoughts start to grow deadly, Who will keep you at peace?

Will they bring the noise back?
Or will they let you suffocate in thought?
~a.k.
