Lifeline

It was so quiet
Then began the most loathsome
And lonesome of worrying nights
Sit back and watch as I fight
To no one, just maddened
By hurricanes on my insides

I've got a knife
To tear open skies 
and bring back the light
Can't have my eyes open
Afraid to turn blind

I was so quiet
Had to remain here
In shadowy sites
Clutching my sorrow
The hunger did rise

I had to hide
From daylight and day life
And daily disguised
Strangers inside me
A door open wide

I kept it quiet
No one beside me
On this faithful night
I kept myself quiet
Hung from the ceiling
Salvation lifeline
