I stopped believing in myself
and everything else
the day I realized that love is like currency,
a currency that, despite my sincerest efforts, I have never been able to work hard enough to earn

In my obsession
With protecting you
In my commitment
To shielding you
From the treachery of the world
I forgot
That perhaps
What posed to you the most danger
Were not your father's threats
Or the demons lurking
In the shadows of your past.
I forgot to protect you
From myself
With my wine-stained lips
And my blood-stained hands
All skin
And bones
And monster

Come little tike,
I'll make you a man,
You're heart burns bright,
In this world so black,
The moon is full tonight,
Wearing its mask,
I'll show you its dark side,
Grab my hand,

There are things in this place,
You wouldn't believe,
Unkown to your race,
Secrets we keep,
We must make haste,
No time for sleep,
Walk in my grace,
I'll make you see,

You will know,
Your true reflection,
you will know,
how hot hell is,
The inferno,
The grand deception,
Black crows,
The angelic,

Come with me,
And keep real close,
I'll set you free,
I'll help you know,
It's truth you seek,
It's what you'll hold,
It's what you'll speak,
And you're who it chose-
