Everyone says love comes with pain, As if its impossible for there to be sun without rain But to me, that just can not be right For love is good, purer than light. What hurts is when that love is gone. That is when you wish you could run. You want to catch it, hold it, keep it. But trying to hard will only break it. Do not blame love when you are broken For it's your own fault for always hoping. Love does not hurt, it heals a broken heart. For its the absence of love that tears it apart. Do not blame love when you are in pain, It is not the sun that makes it rain. Instead blame the person who took love away That's how you were broken, there is no other way.

Love hurts?
I tried to give up compassion But that's something I can't ration 'Cause I'm overflowing with passion, But when happiness starts crashin' I get lost in depression Now my feet are dragging and my head is hangin' While I am walking But once I am home The walls I am banging Even swans recognize the song that I'm singing The mournful song that shows I am dying My soul that once was flying Now is just crying Despite all that I'm trying There ain't no one buying The lies I am telling "I'm fine, I'm not crying I swear, I'm not lying" But I'm wearing a mask There ain't no question to ask That will get the truth, so please do not ask Just leave me to bask In this pool of self pity Because nothing is pretty And my mask hides all beauty I have only duty To die for this world Without holding a girl For my head to twirl And get lost in the world Lost in the rage As I walk on my stage To fight for my life With no weapon, no knife Just me and my fists and the others the same, I'm expected to **** yet I don't know his name I'm lost in the fight I've lost what is right I **** for money Every single night I sold my should to war And I don't know what for I wish I could say this fight was my last But the next fights already started, life's going too fast. I wish I could lost I'm ready to die Will you beat me please? Let my soul fly!

Death of an Immortal
I know not what beats, For my heart has gone. I know not what races, For my heart has run. I have no heart, It has run away. But I worry not, For with you it lays. While it's with you, With love it will burn. Now may I ask, For yours in returns? I'll always be yours, But will you be mine? Please let me call you My valentine.

Valentine
One cold morning While I walked down a road, My head hanging sad, thinking I was alone. I found an old man who sat on the side, He shouted at me "Come, boy, let me give you a ride!" I looked at him odd, shout "You foolish old man! You have no car, are you barking mad?" He laughed right back, replied "I may be a fool! But because I know that, I'm wiser than you!" I turned to confusion, and nearby took a seat. Wondering what a man I happened to meet. "How can you be wise, yet know you're a fool?" "Because I've already learned from the same mistake as you. You left with your head high, walking all alone, yet never did you figure out where you were to go. I made the same mistake when I was young. I wish it was a song unsung. I was confused, I knew not what I wanted. I was making mistakes, for my heart was haunted. With indecision, it'd shake and shiver. And would always change the decisions delivered. I made great mistakes, I payed for these crimes I made the excuse, I was going through tough times. It's just a rough patch, I'll change when things look up, but they never would until I would grow up. As I speak to you, I ask you don't ruin your life. Stay away from a drug, delivered by a knife." My heart just stopped, how could he know? I always wore a shirt so the marks would not show. He leaned in close, and whispered in my ear. "No matter where you go, I will be near. Things will get better when your ready to change when you give up pain, and surrender your rage. There are better ways to get a rush, like winning a race, and falling in love. just walk with a smile, know an angel's out there. with her beautiful face, you'll find her somewhere. Know you can get a job, and you can be happy. I swear it is true, you can trust me. you can be a success, you can be a star you can be whatever you want, whoever you are. But now I must leave, it's time for my depart. Remember me always, there in your heart." I fell to my knees, "I'm sorry for my sins!" He looked down to me, and asked "What sins?" I told him everything, of the knife against skin I told him how I was in love with adrenaline. He looked down to me, and gave me a laugh. "That is not love, for love will always last. No love is a sin, what you have is lust. But breaking these urges will be a must. I know who you are, and I know how you feel, you think this will be forever, but your fate is not sealed. You have reached your destination, I gave you a ride. I'll allow you calling me a fool, this once to slide. Promise me one thing, you will change your life. So I will not live, addicted to the knife." I felt tears down my face, I woke in a cold sweat. I finally understood the man I had met. I was so very happy, I nearly cried. I knew that some day, I could stand with pride. I had finally found, what I needed was help. For the man that I met, was my inner self. I talked with a stranger, and we spoke for so long I learned everything, and my depression was gone. I walked hundreds of miles, alone with my thoughts. And I saved myself, from all of my doubts. And now I go to sleep, curled up in bed. I see my sharpest knife, no longer a threat I smile to myself, knowing where I must go. and knowing I'll never, again be alone.

A Stranger on the Road

I truly believed That I was finally free But your cold addictive fangs Are still hooked into me. I thought I was done, I though I didn't have to run Because I didn't see you I thought I could move on But now you've drug me back, You've delivered another attack Once more I'm at war But I don't know how to strike back. I try to wash away the crime, Wash the blood and the grime, But it only shows the sin And proves that there will never be a time. I am hooked for life, To the cold love of a knife, To the stone cold heart And a soul that knows no right. And so I march at night When everything feels right When my heart is numbed by the cold and my soul is not blinded by light.

Hooked
How I'd like to Fade Away, How I'd like to Run Away. How I'd like to smash my heart, and die so I'd be free today. Crap builds up, Life just ***** You don't know why, but it's just too much. You know the fix, You know it's quick, But only that, the problems still pick At the edges of my soul as my eyes fade to dull I feel as if I'm going mad Of anger, I am always full. Why? Why do I suffer so? Why is it so hard to say no? Or should I give up? Should I just go? I just wish that I could run Be free of all this and be done But I made a commitment that I won't break. Until my mind is completely gone...

Gone
I'm cold All alone, Walking down a road And my heart goes boom boom boom Then I see your face Your pretty smile After it's been a while I feel my heart's style Boom Boom Boom Then I feel your touch Your embrace Of love I get a taste And my heart begins to race BOOM BOOM BOOM Then we part, I'm alone again, I know I'll see you, but not when My heart slows back down then Boom Boom Boom Once more I'm alone on my feet But you still give reason for my heart to beat And it calmly awaits until we next meet boom boom boom

Lovers Heart
I start small, though with many causes. Bad choices made in the woods, or in houses. An electrical short, a discarded match Left behind cig, that unleashed my wrath. I grow, multiple, feast on all in my path! Only wanting to live, can you blame me for that? You wound me with hoses, buckets of water I feel so misjudged, Hated for being fire. Destruction is all you see, never my good Morbid is your mind, hiding under your hood. You use flames every day, though little do you know I make heat, energy, heat meat on your stove But all you see is my evil, so I'm going away, I hope you enjoy your freezing cold meal and day :)

Life Force
He gets in position, looks for the man He thinks of the crimes, oh how he's ****** His eye to the scope, he carefully takes aim, His mind on one thing, all of his rage; his finger on the trigger, his blood-lust he will sate but before he can pull, he hesitates He doesn't understand, he starts to panic, his palms start sweating, his heart becomes quick, He does his job, no thought in his mind, Leaving his soul's virginity behind. He hears the bang, a bullet's deathly song next time he plays, hesitation will forever be gone;

Hesitate
I have the lust, and he has the rage. I have the youth, and he has the age. Yet I ask who he is, and I learn who I am I ask him again, and I hear him, god **** Blood spills on the floor, is it his, is it mine? Yes. I want but to love, his wish is to **** I appeal to their minds, he overpowers their will but we both lose control, we both take control, we both burn bright, and we're both filled with soul But is it I who can see, or him with the eyes? Yes. I was raised from the heart, he was raised from the wrath, two monsters akin, destroying all in our path. He wrings the neck, I kiss the lips, he breaks the back, I caress the hips, I create life, he destroy all I am the spring, he is the fall. But is it he who is dangerous, or I who is the monster? Yes. For we both are one monster, forever together. We both are just the one, killing forever. No.
