Within me, shall there be an entity!
Outside of me, its so very hard to see!
My shell I keep on, for I know I'll be alone!
All on my own, frozen like stone!
I'll keep my space, just to keep my pace!
The Look on my face, wants the taste!
My sanity gone..

I'm broken, for the I've spoken!
You locked me away, please stay away!
I know not of my own, I've been forever alone!
Body consumed in scars, like the billions of stars!
Insane I've become..

Insanity is here, I'm letting her steer!
Please don't fear, my mind is far from clear!
Take me away, I don't want to stay!
I'm needing a way, hopefully you don't like to play!
Don't toy with me, for pain we both will see!
I need you for me, not against thee!
My sanity is long gone..
