Cloak my sorrow in the shadows Hide self-pity in despair Bury me beside regrets I called but she’s not there Paint my face with lies of laughter Paper over all I’ve done Count the eyes that see and love me But stop when you reach none Wash the stains that life has left me Bind my wounds that touch the bone Bathe me in a brook of promise Just don’t leave me alone Tell the world in twelve-foot letters This fool is broke beyond repair I’ll cloak my sorrow in the shadows I called but she’s not there |

~ I really enjoyed this and have been there before. The last stanza was my favorite. |
