Clinging to the cold hard stone
Looking down below
Contemplating my escape
Alas, no place to go

Nightmares fill my every thought
Dragging me further within
Will someone come to rescue me
Before my breath wears thin

Save me from this darkened place
The demons, cast away
As I stand upon this window’s ledge
Calling for the light of day

To chase the monsters from my head
And drive away the pain
Release me from this tortured soul
Let me breathe in life again
