I see answers you have tried too hard to find
I see shadows of a self you never knew
I see worries that you thought were left behind
I see signs of their return, and what they’ll do
I have nothing that you really want to hear
I have taken from you all you ever had
I have stripped away the confident veneer
I have stolen what was good and left the bad
I will never be the comfort that you need
I will suffocate your soul and steal its air
I will starve you when your spirit longs to feed
I will fill your dreams with darkness, with despair
I know something you will never understand
You have lived your life exactly as I planned
