Sometimes, realization comes from nowhere
And the truth is so powerful that it can strike you where you stand

No amount of steel or stone can hide that there is only one truth
That nothing is true

Our foundation from which we gather our beliefs is more fragile than you may realize
Though we don’t like to think so
Our beliefs, our bodies, our faith
Everything changes

And when that foundation crumbles beneath us, we do not fall, we climb
Climb the ladder of evolution

I do believe in god
But I also believe that god grants us the power to have faith
Not in God, but in ourselves

Because we are part of God
God is the universe, and we are the universe
Perhaps a conceited view to those who do not dare look beyond the words themselves
But to those who understand, to those who have faith
They just may have that same realization

And though I heartily speak these words
Question them as well

Nothing is true, everything is permitted

It’s time to let it go
Your past will only torment you
If you choose to make it so

Your haunted dreams eat you alive
Replace the blood with tears
And your conscious will survive

Even if you miss me
What will your life gain?
Would it really be that bad
If we never meet again?

I love you so much
But it’s time to let me go
For if we never meet again
Our time now was worth it
Of that I surely know

Ingested demons cause a break
Infested in me, deceived by the snake
An endless tunnel, though no escape
A two way hell, get me out of this place

Splatter the walls with my sins
Will this torment ever end?

My back is burning, a rising heat
I try to walk, I try to run
Wicked spirits take my feet
Oh the horrors have just begun

A light hath shone, a path awaits
A getaway or devils bait?
I crawl toward the golden glow
I get closer, then start to slow
That gleam of gold converts to red
That spark of hope, I now have shed
And as I breathe my final breath
I begin to mourn my futile death

The last thing I hear, that profane hiss
I sink forever in this bronze abyss…

This phrase, so often repeated as if it were a bluff
And I used to think these words were worn
But now I see that it can’t be said enough
Even if I repeated it since the day that I was born

I would move a mountain just for you to see me
I would crater this world as I start shrieking
How much I love the energy you bring
Every word I hear
Is like music to my ears

And as the ground crumbles below you
I would rip my own heart out if it meant that I could show you
That I would do anything to ensure that I could know you

You may never read this and perhaps it is our destiny
But that feeling in my heart, never to subside
I’d tear through fate itself
Just to call you mine

Don’t you wish
Memories could last forever
To pull the lever
And enter
A nostalgic adventure

Things weren’t always good
But they seem so much better
When you’re on the other side
of the black mirror

It's a tale as old a s time. You never know
how much of a difference someone made
in your life until they're gone. I've known
that for a while yet you never truly
understand it til it happens. I'm laying in
my room right now, and I've just been
thinking. I tried pretending it didn't hurt me
and that everything was normal for the
past few days, but it all came crashing
down on m e today. All the things that I
may have found annoying are now things I
wish I could do again. His white hair
everywhere, him constantly going in and
out of my room. I always slept with the
door open in c a s e he wanted a place to
sleep, but always worried of him shedding
everywhere. I've been thinking of all that,
and just trying to power through it. But as I
was in the shower, I was thinking about my
clothes. My basket is still currently
downstairs and my clothes are still drying,
so l need to put the clothes that are in my
room on the love seat, but I don't want
buddy to get his hair all over them... I broke
down crying. I'm sorry if we didn't treat you
the best Buddy boy, but I always loved you.
I would do it all and all again if it meant we
got to have you back. You are a good boy,
and always protected and cared for us.
You're too cool to forget Budro

Love you, and thank you, Thunder Buddy

Our highs have been so high
And our downs have been so down
Although this life was painful
I would still want to go around
The world again, with you
Because the happiness I felt
Though can't be reached again
Has still made me smile
And made me a better man
There are some ugly truths
That I don't want to admit
I hope it's not true
But I want to build a better world
And I don't know if you're part of it
But the things you've taught me
And the smiles you've brought me
They certainly will be..
