Where the sun has never shined
Where the sun has never shined
verse
I walk about like a zombie.
I neither laugh nor cry.
Hope has become a faint mirage.
All of my dreams have died.
pre chorus
What happened I don’t remember.
I’ve blocked it out of my mind.
Pushed it below, pushed it below.
where the sun has never shined.
chorus 2x
where the sun, where the sun
where the sun has never shined.
verse
I lie awake in my coffin.
I’m afraid of the dark.
The monster who rapes young children
out playing in the park.
pre chorus
What happened I don’t remember.
I’ve blocked it out of my mind.
Pushed it below pushed it below
where the sun has never shined.
chorus 2x
pushed it below, pushed it below
where the sun has never shined.

The bruises healed on the outside
but the wounds inside still bleed.
In the darkness, in the darkness
I see what he does to me.

Dark and mysterious this one Carroll. Lyrics are good but not sure about the choice of music, more Goth like.
Unusual choice for you.

Well that's dark! And thank you for the link!
Reading, I found myself saying "Pushed it below, way down low" so maybe that's an option.

The goal of a poem/lyric is to make you feel. THIS ONE MADE ME FEEL. Soooooooo dark and foreboding. Soooooo hopeless. It is (imo) a great lyric.
