The sun shines in a rather sorrowful state.
Casting down dark rays of shadows as it beams.
So come closer, a troubled heart is still beating.
Step lightly though, cancerous lungs are still breathing.
Tread ever so carefully, for joy is quickly fleeing.
True happiness is self deceiving.
This living nightmare was once a golden bright dream,
when I existed in a better past,
with a wonderfully innocent soul.
Now watch as life is roughly torn open at its seams.
Now listen carefully and all that you will hear are sorrow filled screams.
