The root to all my pain is you
You implanted the seed of hate within me
These poisoned tears I shed for you

Born from darkness, you resent me
I am the incarnation of your suffering, of your nightmares
But with a halo of innocence, I was banished nonetheless
The core to all my anger is you

The years went by, and in solitude I was raised
A corrupted innocence I held thanks to you
I watched as humanity showed it's ugly face,
Oh how the flames licked away all that was pure
The world of my hate is you

Leaving behind the stolen purity
I embarked on a road of loneliness and suffering
To seek the strength that you failed to achieve
I became cold and of stone, my pain made me strong
Made me lose my humanity
The monster of my nightmares is you

Even though the years have passed, and now I have skin of steel
There's an empty hole where my heart should be
Still waiting for the day you'll fill it with love
Even if my being will reject it, and my body will shut down at the unknown feeling
To have known that at least a little bit of love was held for me,
Would have been worth dying
The reason I'm scared to love, is you
