Canadian «Autour de moi, la douleur; qui m'arraché le coeur/ je suis devenu plus fort, lorsque mes battements sont morts.» - la fièvre par porcelaine
Because of the things I've said, I couldn't hold it in. They all burst from my head, Ripped my breath, ripped forevermore. Because of the things I've felt, I've lived away from this world. With the hand I was dealt, Walking in silence, silence forevermore. Because of the things I've heard, Throughout these rooms, around my head. Don't even, not one more word, No more words, none forevermore. Because of the things I've seen, My eyes, they burn. They will never be clean, Look away now, away forevermore. Because of the things I've done, It's my time to leave. I must run, Run away, away forevermore. Because of the things I've left unsaid, I couldn't trust, let you in. You'll never be inside my head, I'm too gone, gone forevermore.

Forevermore
I'm not finished, im not done We're in no hurry, baby, we're still young I have more to say, more to do you cut me short, as if on cue I was mid sentence, caught up mid stride You cut me deep, acted like you had a free ride Drove away with my all on board I tried to hurt you back but its a double edged sword my words hurt me, now I'm back on the floor when I was with you my heart, it soared as I lie here cut up and open  trying to feel scarred, yet im still broken to look at your face, its such a disgrace you were never really there; a ghost in your place respect me you say, but respect you did not you took what was not yours and gave none back watching and waiting but I never crack Spat at my back and then in my face respect me you say, but respect you did not you took it too; the secret that was all mine  now the knife hovers there just over my spine  I lay watching and waiting for that final word And this torment, well it's absurd end it for for me, just say the word scream it, yell it, dont let it go unheard how I gave you the power, the power to me  i gave almost all, i gave to you freely I take nothing back, for what I said I felt  looking in your eyes, though I still melt  respect me you say, but respect you did not I'm a new person, with new feelings to give trust doesn't mean I've lost my chance to live I'm allowed to breathe, but I'm still mad  how worthless I was you, the power you had its worthless now;  its back here match me, kiddo, I kicked it up a gear.

respect me you say, but respect you did not

transition
Feel the fire down your neck Your heart beating like a drum Flashes of red as they fade to gray                 -the ashes sift away. Don’t ask for comfort, here you get none They’ll watch as the flames work through your body Thundering your pounding lungs                -desperate to get away. The heat grows high; where do you go from here? Encased in flames; you have no chance No chance to feel the love                -no chance to get away. It’s ending so soon, you let you all go Your soul to be picked over; because you don’t really care You’ve fallen to low, to see yourself now                -pick your feet up; fly away And now it’s all over, as they watch you; laid bare A pretty red dress, stained with your blood Your body so broken, so fragile; unmarred                -locked up tight you can’t get away They’ll take you away, ashamed of the sight You think of the sight that kept you alive As you make your escape; your heart beating like a drum                -as you run in the dead of night, run away *Your funeral was held; the empty coffin, buried As you nurse your wounds in sweet success Thinking of that face that made you find strength                - yout pain is taken away*

Breaking Point;
Rule your world with an iron fist Be fortunous by happenstance Accept those that need it most; and hope they do the same Look ahead; Face your fears - head on. See the sounds of anger; ignore them with a passion Be who you are Because you dont know how to do it different.
