The Ruins of Me - Shadecrown

Hiding pain behind a smile

Keeping secrets from the world

Growing old with sorrow

Take a closer look

Through these darkened eyes

After weary years

Strength no longer dwells in me

Take a walk

Among these ruins of me

See my withheld despair

There’s nothing left of me

The ruins of me

I am hollow

Couldn’t light up the blackest sky

In this world I am forlorn

Couldn’t feel the warmth of the sun

Deep down I’m dying inside

Couldn’t show my weakness

Couldn’t shed these tars so bitter

Now I’m drowning deeper
