The walls have been closing in on me
And the time seems to just melt away
Nothing will ever matter anymore
After my world has went away

Taking a moment of extreme indifference
With nothing left to say
The end can’t come soon enough
Waiting until my world goes away

Coming and going is all the same to me
As is different shades of grey
Living and dying holds the same luster
Until my world has gone away

Everything I’ve ever done is turned to dust
Nobody I ever knew stays
I am left behind watching, waiting helpless
As my world goes away

So much gained to lose all at once
But I will remember this day
The day I lost it all and died inside
The day my world went away

Chalmette Guy - what an outpouring of emotions, sad but well written with a lot of meaning. Stay well...

This takes my heart and wrings it out... I don't think bleak could be written better.
