I'm no-one extraordinary. I'm just another tortured soul traveling to find a sense of peace.
If I were your light, I would conquer all shadows From your mind, your heart, your soul. I would chase your demons Until they expired. No more hiding Under bed nor closet. No more ghouls. If I were your hero, I would keep you safe. I would heal your broken wings. My strength would fortify, Reassure and comfort. You'd have peace Of such as the nightingale sings. If I were your moon, You could fall asleep in the embrace Of my glow. Darkness no more. But if I were the moon, You must be the sun. It is your love I reflect. Your love that I adore.

If
I've been fighting for so long I have shattered views and broken bones Those closest to me Hurt me the most, Burned me to the core I smile, though I feel like dying I'm frozen to the bones, still I keep on going Shackled by my demons and fears I hurt myself more than anyone could ever dream You are the light to the dark side of me The gates of Heaven could open with a single kiss These emotions play with me dangerously I would kneel at your feet, if it meant you'd love me Even when the darkness subsides, shadows still remain It's hard to believe you're not a phantasm...fleeting, then gone The doubt coils around me, choking me Its sick cadence infecting me, taunting me

Edge
You crept up to me Stealthily, silently Occupying my mind My dreams, my desires Taking my heart Unnoticed, unaware Making me yours Completely, entirely.

Thief
Out of the night that covers me, Black as the Pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud, Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is ****** but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds, and shall find me, unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.

Invictus
Destruction permeates the room You can feel it You can feel it If it continues we're heading for doom You can believe it You can believe it The scent of hate is pungent The need to win is urgent I can't fight this sadness Let alone destroy its madness It seems I've already lost It's over It's over
