Despair
 
Despair! Despair!
He shows his face.
He wraps me in his cold embrace.
I mourn my life, I teeter here
On edge of light and despair
Despair!
 
Despair! Despite!
A hopeless fight.
They pull me down to blackest night.
How can I try to solve my plight?
I'm drowning in despair
Despite!
 
No truth can find me where I lie.
No hope can bind me 'fore I die.
Despair has reft my will to live.
I've nothing left at all to give.
 
No light, no smile,
There's nothing there.
There is no one to ever care
To pull me from these depths of hell.
I cannot try, I only fail.
 
Give up! Give up!
They shout at me.
I cannot hide or hope to flee.
I give my life to stop them there.
There is no more despair
Depair!
