Oh, bleak and weary day

Bring your stark grey over me

If I lie on the ground and stare up at you

Will you bear me to the sky?

Will the clouds engulf me

Like a comforting blanket?

Will this bleak day take me up

To stand by the sides of my gods?

They who tear me down and build me up

They who ruin and reward me

Do they know of this bleak day?

Will the rain see me as it splashes down?

It lands in my eyes and fall like tears

My faith is gone, my hope used

My love is misplaced, peace long gone

Anger and fear are all I have left

I am scared of what I am

And of what I could become

Sometimes I want to let go

And then I remember the truth

Hidden in the lies

Don't listen to what they tell me

I know that everyone dies.
