There
was a time I had joy
Long
ago when I was a boy
But
now only pain resides
Ripping
apart my insides
Happiness
and love are gone
As
I am only life's pawn
My
heart beats no more
For
hope has left the door
My
broken soul lies dead
With
the words of love unsaid
Never
to reveal the heart
Only
to fall apart
I
wish this pain would fade
So
I could emerge from the shade
But
misery bides me here
Engulfing
me in fear
The
greatest threat to man's soul
Are
the doubts that create a hole
An
incomplete man reaps sorrow
Swallowing
him in shadow
