this crimson vessel...

heart’s so full

of dark gray clouds
got me in its pull
wanna scream out loud
                 
but sound don’t come
to a heart heavy as mine
thoughts turned numb
stayin' alive just to pine

seems the skies above
feel the same bleak way
weepin’ my loss of love
drippin’ sadness night and day

rains come down
deep into my soul
so ‘fraid i’m gonna drown
and it stings me so

trickles down thru my flesh
strippin’ ‘way all that’s left
leavin’ nothin’ but an empty mess
like a sneaky sinister theft

winds of despair
leavin’ my mind tossed about
can’t rebuild can’t repair

this crimson vessel full of doubt
