Shrinking Violet - Wear Your Wounds

My love, please just wait a second

There’s something you must understand

My disease is such a flawed design

The true absence of hope and light

I once lived on, on a placid hill

So young and invincible

With an innocence so deliberate

I never saw the storms coming

As I grew tall timid skies turned grey

Wind picked up and all the petals swayed

Those tears, they fell down as pouring rain

A shrinking violet, I must have lost my way

So I journeyed on, deep into the black

And delicately he then took my hand

Pulled me closer and never ever left

My faithful darkness, a most loyal friend
