Let me be the first
To close my eyes and go to sleep
To see you in my dreams sooner than now
And get me a sleep worthy for kings
A slumber which can never come true
Until the time comes that you're with me

I know not what I did
For you to act as if
I'm a ghost with no voice
A stranger in the night
But even with this in mind
I will never raise the flag
Until you say the words
That signify my defeat
I will never say I quit
Until you ask me to say I will

Just like the how the moon changes its face
I might change the way I treat you each day
But even with this ****** fault of mine
Never forget this fact, engrave it on your mind
That my love for you will never die
Always and forever, it will never die

All I want
In my life right now
Is to have no worries
To have no fears
To solve all my problems
And to shed no tears

All I need
Is a warm, sunny day
With a good book
For me to blissfully read
Whilst holding a cup of tea
To keep my mind worry-free

That is the dream
That I pray to come true
A colorful, peaceful day
At least one of it will do
And after that I can truly say
I'm happy too

Ever get the feeling?
That you just want to give up?
That you just want to lie down on a field of grass,
And give everything up?

The time that you just can’t take,
All the challenges that come your way,
Meant to bring you down as you go on,
And get you nearer to the point you’ll break.

Even when you give it your best.
Even though you give it your all.
Even if you face all obstacles head on,
More will rise that are more capable of making you fall.

I, for one, have felt this feeling.
Day after day, I was always thinking.
Of running away from all my problems.
Thinking that through that they’ll all go away.

All my life I had thought this was the best escape
To run away, was the most logical solution
At first, it was easy to maintain
To pretend like the problems never came

But as time passed by I saw my fault
Running away never solved what I fought
The challenges I fled from grew bigger
And I was forced to face it head on

That’s when I learned to never back down
To never turn the other cheek
That I must face my problems with chin held high
To make sure it’s solved before I lay down, rot and die

It's been dark lately
I'm surrounded at all sides
All I ask for honestly
Is one spark of light
To get me through the worst ahead
To keep the last bits of sanity I have left
I don't care if it's just a glimpse
Nor if that spark is the last I will see
That one spark of light I yearn to spot
Is enough to keep me going, smiling with glee
Through an endless stroll across the dark cobble street
Illuminating the pitch black darkness of the night
As long as I see and catch that spark of light
Just one, final spark of light will suffice
It will shine for an eternity and a lifetime

Let these be my last
Words to mark my fate
Of a life filled with unfinished businesses
And unfulfilled dreams
Climaxed by my descent to insanity
Ended by the last of my breaths
No, I'm not thinking of suicide.
