Song: Keep The Light On

Part of this blog will consist of songs that I write when I'm feeling low. This one is called 'Keep The Light On'. Copyright of moi.

It's a dark, lonely space in my head
The demons eating me as I lay in bed
The black whole consuming all my thoughts
The vicious comments and the howling taunts.

You didn't even try to come and rescue me
Instead you laughed and smiled and just left me be
I saw the look in your eye as you extracted my soul
And in the place of it you left a huge black hole.

Keep the light on
Guide me home
Keep the light on
Let me know I'm not alone.

Keep the light bright
Is this path right?
Keep the light bright
Help me win this fight.

They're consuming me from deep inside
They do it out of jealousy and pure spite
They're angry, nasty, evil creatures
No one can rid them, not even preachers.

Send me away, send me out
Put me in a cage and let me shout
Let me struggle, let me plead
And then at the end let me be freed.

Keep the light on
Guide me home
Keep the light on
Let me know I'm not alone.

Keep the light bright
Is my path right?
Keep the light bright
Help me win this fight.

Help me
Love me
Free me
Try and be me.

Help me
Love me
Free me
Understand me

Keep the light on (x2)

The message behind this song is how dark my days are after having an episode of abuse from bullies and the effect they have on me, not just physically but psychologically as well.

Thank you for reading! I think some people think of me as being a manic depressant which is completely not true, I just have struggles like any normal person and this is the way I tend to deal with them.

Manic Depression is the same as Bipolar Disorder. People are stupid and as your song says - jealous! Great work. x

@jet_witch I know but some people don't realise what they say! And thank you, means so much! x x

Wow, truly awesome :) i've been bullied a few times throughout my life, and i had no way to deal with my sadness and the locked up anger - i'm glad that you have found a medium to express your feelings through and i hope things go well for you :)

@deviltortoise Yes bullying is a very tough thing and I'm glad I have my song writing otherwise I don't know here I'd be. It's a shame you kept your feelings locked up, but hopefully everything is good for you now! And thank you, means so much to me!
