When the shadows slowly crept away,
i had nothing more to say,
i let the cuts upon mi wrist
scab and crust away.
my mind had trafficd a world of hate,
i fuelled to love again,
and so i tried and cut and slept,
a new image for my heart,
but the shadows would creep and tear it down,
i was left back at the start,
and so i shone with zeal and pride,
i strove to see the light,
but the shadows had taken back mi lips and slit them in the night.
