As shades of darkness bloom
And eyes of pity pry.
My heart in sorrow is drowned.
As darkness overwhelms
And sadness covers up.
My heart in sorrow is drowned.
As tears flushed my mind
And denial torches it.
My heart in sorrow is drowned.
As head aches to pain
And body to hurt.
My heart in sorrow is drowned.
As silence curbs my mouth
And words refused my lips.
My heart in sorrow is drowned.
As hurt lingers still
And anger gets inserted.
My heart in sorrow is drowned.
