“Empty Shell” by Ashley Michelle Hard ๐ŸŽถ

Written by my younger self on 5-29-2016

Verse one

In the the darkness of the night  They come and to the death she does fight 
But no matter what she does do
They break her down, through and through
They pull her soul from within
Into the darkness they take it and pin
It to the walls of Hell to suffer
The wrath of purest evil against her.

Chorus

Darkness - Darkness 
All around her is darkness
What to do?
What to do?
How to hide?
How to survive?
No where to run
Only pray for the sun
Darkness - Darkness
All around her
Darkness...

Verse two

Upon waking with her body and soul intact 
The dark ones grasp on her remains in her back
All the day long she is safe in the light
But all eyes are on her when she walks in the night
Looking around as a delusionally paranoid one
All eyes are on her back, fast very fast does she run
Where can she hide from who she can't see?
When from all directions the force brings her to her knees.

Chorus

Darkness - Darkness 
All around her is darkness
What to do?
What to do?
How to hide?
How to survive?
No where to run
Only pray for the sun
Darkness - Darkness
All around her
Is darkness...

Verse Three

All she can do is run, hide, hope and pray 
That through the darkness she can make it to the day
As the sun rises and darkness fades
She watches the horizon as the darkness shades
In the light she is safe from being taken under
So she lays to rest but the fears do thunder
Even in the light she isn't safe to sleep
As the demons still hold her mind so deep
All she can do is stay awake to stay out of Hell
Until all that remains of her, is an empty Shell
An empty shell...

Chorus

Darkness - Darkness 
All around her is darkness
What to do?
What to do?
How to hide?
How to survive?
No where to run
Only pray for the sun
Darkness - Darkness
All around her
Is darkness...
