I walk alone in the grey. Hearing every voice in pain. With nothing left to find, I just leave nothing behind. Every heart that ever broke Pours its weight into my chest. It isn't fire, isn't smoke— Just a cold and quiet rest. I bear the weight of every cry, And keep the world at bay. One shadow falls beneath my sky, And hope dissolves away. You reach for the light, You reach for the shore. Reaching for something You can't reach anymore. It's not that it hurts... It's that nothing does. Can you feel it? The nothing inside. Can you feel it? Where the light used to hide. You can't fight it, You can't name it. There's no wound to heal, There's no pain to feel. Just empty. Just empty. You raise your steel to my face, Full of purpose, full of light. I grieve to watch your valiant heart Succumb to endless cold. The grey unwinds the golden thread You fought so hard to hold. I feel your brilliant courage break, And drown your inner light. You reach for the light, You reach for the shore. Reaching for something You can't reach anymore. It's not that it hurts... It's that nothing does. Can you feel it? The nothing inside. Can you feel it? Where the light used to hide. You can't fight it, You can't name it. There's no wound to heal, There's no pain to feel. Just empty. Just empty. I am not your enemy. I am just what stays. When all the passion in your soul Fades into the haze. You won't scream at the void, You won't curse my name. You'll just sit inside the quiet Until we are the same. Can you feel it? The nothing inside. Can you feel it? Where the light used to hide. You can't fight it, You can't name it. There's no wound to heal, There's no pain to feel. Just empty. Just empty. No scar to bleed. No light to send. I walk away into the cold... And leave another empty end. Just empty.
