NO Laughter Here

THE LAUGHTER IN MY EYES HAS FADED AWAY

A DARKNESS COMES OVER THEM, FOREVER TO STAY

MY SOUL IS STAINED DEEPLY BY MY NEW WAY OF LIFE

EACH DAY I STRUGGLE, KNOWING I'M NOT RIGHT

IN A FEW MONTHS, I HAVE AGED A FEW YEARS

I'M LIVING THE LIFE, I ONCE FEARED

TIME IS VENGEFUL TO ME, AS IT DOES PASS

I KNOW THIS LIFE, CANNOT MUCH LONGER LAST

I WILL FALL HARD INTO A PIT OF DESPAIR

HELL, SOMEDAYS I KNOW, I'M ALREADY THERE!

NO PRIDE IS WITHIN ME, IT'S BEEN THROWN AWAY

A BROKEN HEART NOW REMAINS, FOREVER TO STAY

LONELY IS THIS LIFE, I AM SO TIRED TO LIVE

I NO LONGER HAVE ANYTHING WORTHY TO GIVE

AGAIN I'LL FALL ASLEEP, WITH TEARS IN MY EYES

IT'S A HORRIBLE FEELING, WANTING TO DIE

YET HERE I REMAIN, IN PAIN, STRUGGLING TO STAY

THE LAUGHTER IN MY EYES HAS FADED AWAY!
