the perilous mind - the cycle of darkness lyrics

the cycle of darkness lyrics
innocent, young and untainted
so blind and vulnerable
a life that began to shine so bright
nothing detectable
thought i’d found all of the answers
could i have been more wrong
when my world began to crumble
should have known it all along that my end was coming soon

betrayed, abandoned, pushed away and replaced + forgotten
walking ‘round in circles into the winds of descension
playing your words through my head over and over again + hollow
did i give too much or not enough, who f+cking knows

one by one they all disappeared, vanished from my life
left alone with the worsening state of my confused, angry mind
isolating myself from all that surround, zero trust
forced daily interaction, can’t pretend that i’m not lost

how could i have seen it coming if i know not what went wrong
no warning signs of any kind, no omen dawned
how i made it through one single day in this place i’ll never know
subliminal ridicule and torture for years i would soon undergo

gaping wound, a fraction remaining
of who i used to be
all that i had, all that defined me
no longer can be seen
overnight, the dramatic departure
the light that faded away
internally evaporating
nothing can i say as i watch and bleed
the cycle of darkness had only begun to take hold of my life
a pattern that started with a devastating blow that would forever change me inside
there’s nothing that could have prepared me for what my life would soon become
the door is open now for good, the damage has been done

darkness will always re+manifest, taking on new forms
as soon as you think it’s gone for good, the black cloud is reborn
forever i’m followed by this recurring theme, the burden un+dismissed
the cycle of darkness to which i belong will never cease to exist

therapy was not the answer
i never would have seen
a diagnosis
is not what i did need
so i decided
i would continue on my own
knowing not
all that would follow

i may not find closure
but maybe clarity
the time is now
and this is where i’ll be
