Here in the dark
When night is deep
My soul is stripped
Facades asleep
I look inside
For something grand
But find a hole
That I can't stand
The day is over
The lesson done
What I learned
Is trust no one
Not even I
Can trust the me
A broken promise
For all to see
If I tell them
But locked inside
Is my secret
There twill abide
Here in darkness
I will tell
For no one to read
No one to dispell
The treachery
Of a broken promise
For when came the time
I was put to the test
I fell beyond
The perfect, Holy, and best
So now I live
Thinking I am a fool
To love that hard
Should have played it cool
To give that much
To go that deep
And in the end
Just have to weep
And wonder if it matters
And if I really matter
And what there is that matters
And fear that nothing matters
