Woe-ful

Keep me in the dark

Where it all seems bleak

I will not seek reprieve

Keep me far away

From atop these peaks

I will not seek release

I won't ask or tell

I'll stay where I fell

I'll slip out of your head

I'm as good as dead

Light a bright light

To the shadows, of your memory

And I'll be lost to you

I'll be gone for good

Fill me into bark

But it won't be me

It's just what you believe

Singe me with a spark

Just to hear me speak

But I can't breathe at all

I won't say I fell

I won't call this hell

I'll just lie here in red

I'm as good as dead

Light a bright light

To the shadow's of your memory

And I'll be lost to you

I'll be gone for good

It's not that I'm trying at all

I can't seem to get this over with

Doesn't seem hard to fall

Once you've hit rock bottom.
