Hello?


Hello... Is there anybody home?
I  knock, but there's no answer.
Once again,
I am left standing in the cold
With nowhere else to go.

Freezing hands shoved deep into
The thorned pockets of my faded jeans,
With each clumsy step,
I find myself farther from my dreams.
I walk along this endless sidewalk of despair;
Wherever it takes me is beyond my care.

Although my eyes are wide-open,
I can hardly see;
A tunnel of utter darkness stands before me.
Frightened, I slowly make my way inside
With no one but the devil at my side.

Hello... Is there anybody here?
I cry, but no one hears me.
Once again,
I am left drowning in my tears,
And the devil won't save me.
