As Dark as Day

I knew myself, what come what may, what love I lost, it slipped away
I closed my eyes and turned away,
the sky was dark, as dark as day
I heard myself, such rage, such pain,
a wailing in the pouring rain
I saw myself, no eyes, just blame, such weather storming in my brain
I killed myself, the blade that came, was made for me, it held my name
I grieved myself, for all I’d lost,
for every penny, every cost

I closed my eyes and turned away,
the sky was dark, as black as day
As white as snow, but dark as death, no voices here, no choices left
No need to walk, if I should fall,
no one to care, to know at all
No life to pin me down like chains,
no love to make me weak, no stains
No Gods to fear
on bended knee,
nobody else except for me

I heard myself, such rage, such pain,
a wailing in the pouring rain
A tale I told to stem the flow
of ghosts I know
but do not know
The light is gone,
the light that glows,
then darkness comes
before the close
The close of us,
the close of all,
As shadows weep before they fall

I killed myself, the blade that came, was made for me, it held my name
I grieved myself, for all I’d lost,
for every penny, every cost
I heard myself, such rage, such pain,
a wailing in the pouring rain
I saw myself, no eyes, just blame, such weather storming in my brain
I knew myself, what come what may, what love I lost it slipped away
I closed my eyes and turned away,
the sky was dark,
as dark as day
