#2 of Pain

I know that this path doesn't lead to happiness  
But why doesn't someone grab my hand  
pull me from darkness's grasp?  
because no one knows I stand at the boundary  
the boundary between light and dark  
so I give in to the thing that holds me  
All of the strength and all of the courage  
that I once held in my heart  
can't save me from the water  
So I slowly slip below the world of conscientiousness  
undetected by the occupants of that world....

I've given into my darkness temptations...
