This dread I feel
Why won't it go
This hollow, this woe
Howling within
Relentless, empty
Like an anchor
It weighs upon my soul
And I am being pulled below
The ferocious torrents won't let me go
And as minutes go by
They feel like years
Yet here I stand, remaining
In wake of my despair
Desperate and hopeless
Sometimes I wish I cease to be
To tear the pain into pieces
To cry out into the night
And scream it all away
