Hidden in the depths of my soul Lurks a memory so dark That it shrinks with my touch. It is a cancer, a black hole. I was just sixteen years old, When the doctor called. I still feel it within my soul: The hot chill, the bitter cold. More pain dwells deep inside Than the earth can contain. It is the pain of my life time, The dark core: the day you died. Painful, painful, painful memory, Why, oh why, wont you let me be. There was so much life left mother. Why did you leave? What about me? The strongest, starkest, darkest lair; The gist of all my sorrows. From this there is no escape for me: It's everyday that your not there. Come take me far away from there, Deep, sweet call of the night. Hidden in the depths of my soul Lurks a memory so dark That it shrinks with my touch. It is a cancer, a black hole.
