I can feel myself fading,
Slowly away into the shallow grave,
Of nothing,
Of hopelessness.
As I watch my dreams slip away,
Out of my grasp,
Out of my control.
It seems like there is nothing I can do.
And I'm sorry 
I let you believe I was getting better.
But it's easy for me,
To hide behind a mask. 
I've done it for so long now. 
It's easy to hide the dark. 
The truth that eats me away,
The parts that you don't want to see. 
Just like it's easy to lose hope. 
To give up on your future.
When all you've worked for,
Has been taken away,
In the blink of an eye. 
By someone who sat back and watched. 
While you worked on and on,
Who takes all the credit,
And flourishes in the praise.
While you sink down once more,
And a wave of numbness,
Swallows you whole.
