Lullaby For The Forsaken

(album: Shades Of Sorrow - 2023)

Not a single soul can see
The sorrow behind my smile, the reason behind my silence
Not a single soul can see
The depth of my pain, the depth of my torment

Hush now
One-sided assumptions
Hush now
Invisible, I wander around
Hush now
Tread a path of loneliness
Hush now
To come home to myself

Drifting down in the pit
I sing myself the lullaby for the forsaken
Questioning my sanity
I sing myself the lullaby for the forsaken

Understanding denied
The loyalty I need lies only within me
Expectations are resentments in waiting
On my own shoulders, I weep myself to sleep

Hush now
One-sided assumptions
Hush now
Invisible, I wander around
Hush now
Tread a path of loneliness
Hush now
To come home to myself

Drifting down in the pit
I sing myself the lullaby for the forsaken
Questioning my sanity
I sing myself the lullaby for the forsaken

They can hear me but they can't read me
Cause only I bare the weight of my grief
So I give myself the compassion I seek
Neglected, I'll soothe myself to sleep

The lullaby for the forsaken
The lullaby for the forsaken
