Sealed Heart


I hold the light 'til it gets dark

Then I go pitch black

Even in the darkest of shadows I see clearly

You were my light at my darkest hour

That little glimmer in the shadow world

You will never know how much I care

If I actually could feel I would show you

It's cold

I'm numb

I can't show you

I can't feel my own emotions

Pain surrounds my heart

It has my heart filled to the brink

It has been sealed away

Like a curse, that  can't be lifted can't be broken

He's lonely

When he got close he got hurt

Neither of us know what itis like to feel anymore

Even those closest to me

They have hurt me more than I will ever let you see

Hurt is my secret

Hurt is my life

It is all I know
