Noir
Embracing Shadows: Reflecting on the Depths of Inner Struggle
Lyrics
I wish I could know
I desire understanding
What is wrong with me
Questioning personal flaws
All I try to show
Efforts to express go unnoticed
Seems to go unseen
Expressions remain unseen by others
So much space between
Emotional distance between me and everything
Myself and anything
Isolation from the world
Further away I stray
As I move away, I sense self-deterioration
I feel myself fade
Feeling myself losing identity
Overwhelming intrusive thought
Overpowered by intrusive thoughts
Staring into the sun
Intense contemplation, perhaps leading to pain
Pull me down
A call to be pulled down, facing challenges
I am only stepping stones
I am just a means, not an end
Shadow of my silhouette
My existence is a mere outline
Blade in my spine
Feeling stabbed emotionally
Mine all mine
Possessions and struggles are solely mine
Forever in debt to
Perpetually indebted to something
My reclusive mind
Trapped within a secluded mind
Noir in my eyes
Darkness and mystery in my perception
Blood spills when I cry
Emotional pain manifests in physical form
I can't escape it
Unable to avoid the emotional turmoil
So I embrace it
Choosing to accept and adapt to the pain
I remember the days
Reflecting on a time when life was brighter
Before the sky was always so gray
Recalling a period of emotional clarity
Before my smiles were
Smiles used to be genuine, not a facade
Not just hiding the pain
Smiles concealed inner suffering
