Darkness


I've waited for change 

But no change has come

Maybe I just realized

No change will ever come

 

I'm never myself

Or happy at that

Well I could never assume I were happy with that

 

I waited for change

But no change has come

Should I wait any longer

But what choice do I have?

 

Away from the people

The faces, the pain

the things I thought I wanted

Might not still be the same
