When The Sky Turns Black

Lost in the fray.
Screaming in dismay.
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide,
this is where storm and ocean collide.

Where do we go from here?
What happened to angry skies once clear?
We wander down the same lonely road,
with no direction, far from home.

We drown in these darkened seas,
with no conviction, lost in the abyssal catacombs.
That’s when you know there’s no looking back.
That’s when the sky turns black.

Falling helplessly.
Controlled by dubiety.
No strength to fight, no strength to swim,
this is the end, this is where you give in.

Where do you go from here?
Anchored by your pain and buried by your fears?
You wander down the same lonely road,
with no direction, far from home.

You drown in these darkened seas,
with no conviction, lost in the abyssal catacombs.
That’s when you know there’s no looking back.
That’s when the sky turns black.

Anchored to the murky bottom.
Abandoned by the cold hands of Autumn.
Entangled in the web of your emotions.
Do you really want to drown, rotting on the bottom of the ocean?

We wander down the same lonely road,
with no direction, far from home.
We drown in these darkened seas,
with no conviction, lost in the abyssal catacombs.

You don’t drown by going under,
but by giving in to fear’s thunder.
Come whatever may,
you have the strength to stay.

You wander down the same lonely road,
with no direction, far from home.
You drown in these darkened seas,
with no conviction, lost in the abyssal catacombs.

​That’s when you know there’s no looking back.
That’s when through the darkness the sun cracks.
