I thought I would finally find my peace in you
But you ended up being another battle I have to win
To the warriors who are weary in battle, this is for you.
Cry, my heart, 'til your tears dry up
Let the pain resonate all throughout
The sorrows in your lonely screeches
Silence extends her cleansing reaches
Don't let your emotions pile up. Let it out even when no one notices.
Vie
Sunny skies fill up this gloomy haven
Distant spring wash away the burden
Venture forth into lands forsaken
Breathe life into my soul forgotten
To all the wounded: HEAL!
You loved the way I make you smile through subtle jokes
You loved the way I make you laugh with humor
You loved the way I go through great lengths to make you feel special
You loved how I spend my time with you when you're down
You loved how I keep you company when you're alone
You loved how I treasure you like a precious jewel


But you never loved me
And I still hope I made you happy
To those who love so much but will never be loved back. Stay strong.
I remember that it hurt when I thought I can't have you
But it hurts even more now that I might lose you
So if I had the choice, I'm keeping you forever
Exposed, laid myself bare
Empty-handed in a battle hardfought
A storm of emotions wreaked havoc
The sea of madness keeps calling
Rage intensifies, mind going blank
Adrenaline rushing through my veins
One by one they fall down
Little by little I'm worn out
Hopelessness far beyond the horizon
As horrible realizations appear
Powerlessness, tearing me apart
In the vast wastelands of emptiness
Where I'll stand my ground
Beaten, exhausted, and lifeless
I tried but I'm not good enough and I failed
I went to such great lengths to keep you happy
Now I'm broken and tired and no one's fixing me up
So I gotta fix myself
For those who gave it their all but ended up badly hurt in the process.
