PAIN OF MEMORY
Time has passed still pain remains
Its ghostly shadow
Just as sharp as the knife before
My heart once whole
Now lays shattered
A love destroyed
Here I lay
Awake
Sorrow has from me my sleep taken
Alone for my soul has no companion
Broken for I have fallen
From great heights I did tumble
I am low
More than the great canyon is deep
My loneliness is dark
I have retreated
Deep into the darkness of my mind
Slapped on a mask
That makes life almost bearable
Hiding away from the pain
It swells deep within me
Finding my every hiding place
Haunting me with memories of old
