I am fallen.
White wings have broken; I am numbness on the ground.
Drowning, choking,
On the pain from all the chains to which I'm bound.

I need your shoulder to cry on.
Don't let go.
Don't let the darkness pull me under.
I need you there to rely on.
Let me in.
Consume my sorrow through your skin.

I am nothing.
White pools of emptiness lay stagnant in my eyes.
Suffocating,
On the fumes that swallow fragments of my raging mind.

I need your shoulder to cry on.
Hold me close.
Let me know you'll never throw me under.
I need you there to rely on.
Breathe me in,
And set me free beneath your skin.
Jeff drew "August Is Oh So Emo" which inspired me to write this kind of from August's perspective. I have it faved below, so you should check it out if you haven't seen it already. I still dunno how to do links *thumbs up*

I was hearing an actual song as I was writing it, with music and everything...and the voice was like the guy from metallica...that's weird eh?
