Despair is a dark room. Pitch dark, Black. The color of my mind.
It's cold in this room. Freezing and damp, Chilling to the bone. My soul aches, my eyes
burn. The ravens screaming in my ears are pushing me into insanity.
There's a light in the room, a doorway, thank you. The warm light, like an eternal hug.
I'm running for the door, I'm free.
The door slams shut in my face. Just another trick. And I'm as empty as I ever was. Can't
find the light, I'm stuck in this dark room. The walls covered in broken glass, Can't sit
down the water is rising, the stench is unbearable. I have to stand here, cold and wet.
I'm so tired. So tired. Can't take this anymore. I have to find a way out, I can't live
like this. Can't live.
And it's getting darker. Darker. DARKER. Colder. The walls are getting closer. The ravens
are multiplying. All the pain, building up. Trapped, Can't breathe. Now I'm screaming, but
I have no voice. No one can hear me. Let me out. PLEASE LET ME OUT. Please hear me. Can
you hear me?
