Inside Sorrow


Falling apart

Tar on my heart

Black dog with rabies

Get away from me

 

How do I get away from here

The future and the past is all I fear

Looking for those honey bees

To lead me to the bridge of roses and green trees

 

Is this glee for me?

Is this glee for me?

Darkness is consuming

Darkness is consuming

 

How do I get away from here

The future and the past is all I fear

Looking for those honey bees

To lead me to the bridge of roses and green trees
