If we individually decide we've had enough
If we rise up and do what we want
If we respect each other and ourselves
If we destroy fundamental roles
If we pursue our own dreams
Then, and only then, will change happen
We don't won't change
We have never had that ripping hunger
For things to be different
For if we had, they would already be different
Existence is nothing
We must live

Silent murmurs escape broken lips.
It is done.
The deed is through.
As I sit in the moonlight,
Accomplishment washes over my pale form.
I finally picked apart your facade,
Revealing every hidden sinew within.
You yearn for solace,
But there simply isn't any.
Everything you ever wanted
Now lies broken at my feet.

Roll up your sleeves
Fall to your knees
Smile through those fangs
For you now I geeve

Every part of you disgusts me
You aren't who you once were
You'll never be her again

You used to be my everything
Tell me how does it feel
To be nothing to me now

You fake, you coward
You waste of human flesh
How did you fool me all this time

Now I see your true colors
Black and grey is what you are
Beauty in the midst of evil
Emotionally scarred

I deserve so much better than this
Love is not a game we play
It's only a word we say

True actions give words meaning
Your meaning is so clear
I hope you get what you deserve
You have the entirety of life to fear

Stop! Think before your lips part
Using your brain is a good way to start

You won this battle
(what are we fighting for)
But I'll win the war
Just tell me please
(what are we fighting for)
What are we fighting for

You're just another mindless pawn
You have no brain, nothing but brawn
Every word you say will be your demise
If only you could see yourself from my eyes

I don't run from a fight
I fight for what's right
Standing so tall
Make you so small

Bringing you to your knees
Any time that I please
As I see fit
I'll never quit

I will never surrender
You're just a pretender
Nothing you do
Is counted as true

Do what you wish
But I'll make you pay
When you die
I long for that day

I will destroy this monster
It beats my kids and my wife
Takes all my money
Ruins my life

The beast won't leave
It won't go away
I must destroy him
He's not welcome to stay

He complicates all the things I hold dear
Torments my souls year after year

Hidden in my closet
Tucked under my bed
As I sleep he waits
To rip off my head

Run but can't hide
From this shell of a man
He's gaining ground now
Soon I'll make my stand

Load my gun
Test the trigger
I've never felt bigger

Line up the sight
Bullet takes flight
Sinks into skin
Buried within
Then I fall to my knees
That monster was me

Life has a funny way
Of making you see
That life isn't fair
To you or to me

Tricked and played
Conned and cheated
But hardly defeated
I'll rise above the rest
And give it my best

Scream for my life
As it slowly fades away
All that is left
Is beginning to fray

The rope I've held to
Now barely a thread
But if I let go
I'll soon end up dead

I'm running out of strength
I can't make it on my own
This life is too hard
To try to face alone

Send me a sign
Don't you dare leave me here
Give me your hope
While drawing me near

A smile hides it all
Every feeling deep inside
All the heartache that you carry
It'll take you for a ride

Understood in every language
Yet never makes a sound
It gives the impression that you're happy
When you're hiding back a frown

No one suspects that there's anything more
Could they be mistaken?
Could they be more mistaken?
Nevermore

Under this smile
Lies my demise
It's taking me under
While fooling your eyes

All the bitterness and hatred
I've kept hidden for so long
Now that I know this
It makes me feel strong

It covers up an insult
Holds back your hate
It's a miracle worker
But it can't change your fate
