We're cast down through the ages We're cast out forgotten Through emptiness of solitude Through this emptiness No one will ever listen No one will even care Darkness is the only comfort Darkness is all that's safe Their gazes turn sideways whenever you're near They turn their backs to you pretend you aren't there It's so hard to smile when they feed you this shit You'll never fit in, never be one of them So hard to be the outcast So hard to be alone Why must there be tomorrow Why must there be today They say that they're your good friends They say nothing but lies No one is to be trusted No word is ever safe No one is to be trusted No word is ever safe Darkness the only comfort Darkness all that's safe Bring it in waves like the ocean at night To wrap its cold hands around my head To blur out the colors of all that is life Steal air that I breathe from my chest Pull me out, current, show me new life Grant me this chance to see What I could become if left on my own Without them staring at me They will not understand what we've become They'll never know how far we've gone They just keep smiling, the joke is on them They won't understand, the joke is on them I will find my life I don't need you to leave me, I left you behind
