Lost in this cloud

Not a sudden thunderstorm,

The blackness just ebbed in

Casting longer shadows,

Over almost everything

No claps of thunder,

No sounds of rain

Just deafening silence,

Sound of muted pain

When everything shuts down

Reception dead, the lines are cut

Isolated from all life lines

Like they don't give a fuck

Knowing they really care

Terrified it's all a lie

Isolated from all reason

Commonsense begins to die

Poisoned thoughts filling the air

Choking on guilt and fear

Screaming through the fog

Knowing no one will hear

Too tired to fight alone

No light, no air, no hope

Trying to relight your sparkle

Quicker than you can tie rope
