Haunted Souls

A lonesome cry in the middle of the night

I weep into my hands

The sadness overwhelms me and I'm engulfed in darkness

In a mysterious distant land

Nobody to help me ease my pain

Nor to hear my sorrow

They're all sleeping peacefully

To leave on the morrow

Children in thier dreamland

While I run in this nightmare

Everyone's gone without a trace

For me, they do not care

Should I keep trying or just give up

I have to make the choice

Don't want to stay here

Listening to my screaming voice

So I give in to the meaningless void

Let my soul wander free

And I shall remain a shallow puppet

For the rest of eternity
