a whole world of numbness in front of me
a whole world of pain I left behind
yet still this cup will never pass
my memories plays back the same old tune

dark as my past could be
I held on to a little light
it illuminated even my darkest path
but little by little, they extinguished it for me

for me, yeah, for me
they took turns and extinguished without remorse
not minding what will become of me
a monster or a daughter

in one fell swoop I declined
falling from my prestigious height of grace
I hit my back thunderously on the ground
lost all that was left of me

now I am constantly reminded
poised in the same position, stuck till eternity
I am far beyond redemption
the world is nothing but a leech
