    Grief stricken humming outside your ear
    Louder and louder it's quite hard to hear
    Heart pumping slowly in sluggish dismay
    Trying to stop but can't look away
    Torture is growth if you go for that stuff
    Don't have the sense to call out enough
    Metal is better than plastic or wood
    You'd bleed out the sorrow if only you could
    Days run like trains each one on time
    Stale persuasion is passionless crime
    Is this thing life or is it too dark
    Forgot when the tremor decided to park
    A year passes by and still you don't change
    Depression's obsessions make the mind strange
    Twisting up faces to waxen full masks
    The weight of the world upon every task
    Situational stagnance can be very deadly
    If you focus too long on stumbaline medley
    Trying to run in circles it seems
    You're safest at night deep hid into dreams
    The monsters still find you but then you awake
    Is truth or fiction the hardest to take?

    Poigniant. I like "days run like trains"...And to answer the question: truth, definitely, is the hardest pill to swallow.
