I sat alone in the dark during the day
letting all the tears and blood say
what I never could. 

The demons screaming in my head
now don't seem as dread
as they should.

Darkness and pain have become my friends
seen around every future bend
coming for me like they would.

I built up every single wall
in my mind just to watch it fall.
Surviving? It never could.

I've felt like I needed the emptiness
and all the loneliness.
Longing? Like I should.

But I sat with you shining during the day
as "I do" was all I had to say.
Breaking? I never would.
