Cursed

Empathy, a blessing and a curse, to feel another’s pain as I write this verse
Living in a world where we have nothing to lose and in this cold, dark space I think I found my place
Starting not to function I can’t handle more news I need this cold dark space, I think I’ve found my place

You never get over the pain inside [twelve months, six gone, goodbye]
I find myself thinking about you more than I probably ever should
The smile that we wear is our disguise [our lives, their worlds, goodbye]
I know that this is their painful truth, I just wish that I understood

And now I’m seeing these colours, these visions that I never thought I knew
Disguised as a lover, a power divided and forced into two
Just take me away, I’m lost for words I’ve gone insane, just as you started to fade

I’ve shut down, I think I’ve gone insane I don’t think I can do this
I’ve shut down, I think I’ve gone insane and you just need to deal with it
