Dark Waterfall

Dark Waterfall

Forever clouding my vision
The cold rips through my skin
Struggling in decisions
Resurfacing unwanted sin

It strangles me, it pulls me down
How I regret the deed
And you just watch me drown
I scream for help as my lungs bleed

Blindfolded, headed the wrong way
It's to late to be saved
No, can't come back today
Nothing to rise me from my grave

I'm trapped beneath this waterfall
It paralyzes me
I'm hurt; I try to call
But like cowards, you turn and flee

I'm shrouded in all this darkness
I couldn't see before
All I felt was numbness
I no longer want in this war

I would prefer to have nothing
Nothing's better than this
Stress is always frothing
A bit of silence would be bliss

It's always closing in on me
Crackling against my flesh
Constricting so tightly
Claustrophobia through the mesh

I shout, I kick, I try to fight
It's everywhere I go
Darkening all the light
My happiness morphs into woe

I'm sitting in this waterfall
In my only shelter
Though it's so cold I bawl
I can feel myself swelter

It's hard for me to empathize
When I can't stand the pain
I await the demise
Hunting for the sun through the rain
