#nightdwellers Pale white, With frozen skin. Patients for life... Wearing thin. A creature of night, Not a creature of day. Others who live, Need to simply decay. Rushing around, All the time.

Picture Frame Of Life
Picture frame of life, Why do you let us leak. Do you not like our colours. Or see us as futile and weak. Picture frame of life, Why don't you care. Why aren't you bothered that you're leaking away.
