Fading Into The Darkness

There's this picture of perfection that I will never paint
I gave you all my heart, now there's nothing left to take
I've drank down all the poison that life has thrown my way
I'm blinded by the sunlight that welcomes each new day
I walking down the paved road to failure and despair
The walls are closing in and I am gasping for some air
This misery is my company, and pain's my lonely friend
I'm cringing through this scorching hell waiting for an end
There's no use in wishing for things that won't come true
I've faded into darkness and the light will never shine through
Each time I try to close my eyes the nightmares soon return
All the fire I once had inside me now ceases to burn
I'm bursting at the seams from all the torture and the lies
My life is quickly morphing into something that I despise...
