Even some walls cannot contain secrets
Even some prayers can’t save your soul
Even some practice won’t make you perfect
Even some scars do not make you whole

Even some comfort won’t soothe the pain
Even some cloudless skies still produce rain
Even some fears just can’t be contained
And sometimes strong feelings you’ve tried to hide, still remain

Even some guns won’t defend you well enough
Even some badass crap won’t make you tough
Even some skills will fade away
And even sometimes, though you can still feel, you’ll be numb for days

Even some words can’t help you
No one can save you now
It’s too late, far to late to ask for help
And now, you’re going to drown

Even some cloaks can’t conceal you
Even though you hide, you’ll always be found
Even though you’ve always wanted to die
When you jump, you land perfectly unharmed on the ground

We live in a cursed and opposite world
One that’s cruel, one..plain unfair
And some Rapunzel’s won’t be there
To let down the golden stair

You’re falling, down, down
Spiraling into despair
You’ve searched for it all
You’ve wasted your whole life, grasping
But your fingers only catching thin air

Why'd I walk into this room again?

When you can't risk another nightmare
When you can't risk a look back at what you used to be
When you're the devil's very heir
And you're pretending to be blind when you really can see

When you can't look back on your past
When everything you remember hurts
You just can't hold this stance
And every time you look back, your stomach gives a lurch

When you're stuck doing punishment
And you don't even know what for
When your whole life is made up of lies and sins
And the one you loved slammed the door

When everything little day passing by
Is a shard of glass in your skin
And by some means, you wish you could die
Because you know you'll never win

The very day when you know it just can't go on
You've sank to your knees
But, oh darling, no one will think of your brawn
And I'm sorry, but no one can hear your tortured pleas and screams
That are haunting...every day, every second, every dream

Now those dreams will come alive
To shatter you so
You wonder how you've managed to survive
You're broken inside, I've been told

Wish you could rest, you tortured soul
Wish you could live to see the light
But it's kind of hard when you have no role
In your bitter, twisted life

Wish you could end it all, your life
One quick stab, or a shot, or a swallow
Maybe several stabs with a knife
Or slowly and painfully, in the gallows
It all ends on All Hallow's

You wish you could die, but you can't
Because you've grown to like the pain
You don't think they'd understand
That you've gone completely insane

Another loved one lost to you
Another fist closing over you heart
This mourning thing, you must be new to
Because it's tearing you, a shell, apart

There's nothing left inside you now
Not a heart, or a brain, or a mind
It might be a good time to tell you how
The sanity you lost, you'll never find

That first death affected you deeply
Got well under your skin
You were way past weeping
Your life being torn apart by the skin

The darkness is no longer chilling
As it bites and it tears and it calls
The fear it used to, is not instilling
And nothing ever frightens or appalls

You are alone in your room
Just with the moon for company and light
You might as well be in your own tomb
Because you've lost your sense of mind

Beer bottles litter the floor
But they've been there
Way before
When your soul was new and repaired

No one can hear you
Don't even shout
No one can save you
Because no amount

Can fix you
Save you
Heal you

And the nightmares come alive in the night
Once more to predict your blight

Another lonely night alone with yourself in your brain
For, drunken with loss, you've gone absolutely insane

Fluttering, so fragile
A shred, infinitesimal
An ember still fighting to survive
Through generations, to stay alive
To keep burning into the books
How our history looks
What we've achieved
Lost, won, and grieved
And so, my friends, I hope a shred of hope you will receive in your greatest need
It will help in the darkest of your days to relieve
And just know don't ever let it go, because when hope is released

One more ember in the fire goes out
One more fight shivers and freezes
One more dead body added to the pile
And one more heart in the lives of our loved ones is seized

Take care of the shred of hope you have
Try to build a chest full
When you've succeeded that
You'll feel a pull

To help others in their darkest days
As hope has done to you
And hopefully, hope will be
Strong and good enough to see you both well, all through

Asks how you are
Takes a look
You look shaken up
Broken down
Run to the ground

Begging for mercy
On your knees
But I won't be bad
I'm not gonna leave

Comes at a cost
And at several a loss
How badly do you want it
Is it even worth it?

Young
Old
Strong
Oh, so often told
Stay out of trouble
Out of the rubble
of our history.

No one rebels
Until it's too late, everyone lays still
Upon the altar, now

Blood dripping
The marble's sipping
It stains
Representing the failure of this time, in that place...

Hold tight, they say
It'll be alright
But it's nothing
Nothing but lies

I was the one who listened to the satan in the pit
Who wanted to change all of it
The one who rebelled for the better good
Because I was so misunderstood

Now look at me
Watching the marble drink in the iron
Watching the stains of yesterday, not for tomorrow

Young
Old
Strong
Oh, so often told
Stay out of trouble
Out of the rubble
of our history...
