Valley of Darkness
In the valley of darkness, I walk alone
In the valley of darkness, I walk alone
Weighed down by sins, I must atone
Your voice echoes here, haunting me
Inside your arms, I felt safe and free
**********************************
What a beautiful crime
I’ve run out of time
Shadows follow, and I have no energy to run
Screaming for solace, begging for someone
****************************************
Talking to the moon to keep loneliness at bay
You feel close, but I know that you’re far away
Hanging by a thread
He left me for dead
*******************
My happiness is the source of my pain
Thunder rumbles as I wait for the rain
Dragging these chains, I walk and bleed
It’s torment to live without what you need
****************************************
In this dark valley, I’ll remain.
In the end, I’m alone again.
