Into The Dark

Into the dark, into the dark,
I must hide,
Into the dark I embark,
Hope must have died.

Into the darkness,
Devoured by sin,
No forgiveness,
Pricked by a pin.

A blazing holocaust,
Fallen angel,
still uncrossed,
Still painful.

I’m not insane,
But whose to blame,
For the pain,
Here ends the flame.
