Hopeless Days

I never wanted

I never wanted to be born

Into this cruel world

Into this cruel world I was torn

Left behind with grief

Lacerated by life

Shackled into caves of grieves

From an union

From an union of force and fear

Arose my kin

Arose my kin enslaved

In hopelessness

In hopelessness and suspicion

The seed of eternal tomorrow

I was born a captive

A captive of the night

In between

Hopeless days

I was born on sleet

On sleet covered roads

I've been driven by howling winds

A beggar, a drifter

A refugee from my own life

And a companion

Companion of the ghostly lights

But still they came

They found the way to get to me

They beckoned me to follow

I was born a captive

A captive of the night

In between

Hopeless days

I was born on sleet

On sleet covered roads

I've been driven by howling winds
