I'll close my eyes and pretend
You're the enemy -I'll make you a friend

And I promise I won't complain
I'll suffer -this is my pain

Look up, can you see sixty miles away?
I see a storm, I prefer not to say

I'm learning to embrace my dark
I'll take all the sorrow to create the spark

It's one of those times when it gets hard to believe
But the only thing standing in my way is me

I'm all empty, and I can't find my hope
Everyone says "It's okay" -is that the new vogue?

For all the times I was left on my own
I never fell -instead I learnt a little more

It's when you want to give up
That you need to hold on

When you feel the weakest
Oh but, you've got to be strong

Your sun will rise again
It might be soon, or it might take long

You're in your most miserable phase
Now tell me, what else could go wrong?

Right now, it's all you can hear
One day, it'll be **just another song

They want to change you
Yet break you
They say they don't mean to
But they leave you

You're a damaged piece
They all could see
A sterile seed
Mended but unsealed

There's a long, long way
To the heart you don't give away
A path of dismay
Gravel of things left unsaid

You're a different story
With ravel, no glory
So venomous, so lonely
Ruining yourself impatiently

There's only one way to you
A twisted and crooked route
Understood by just a few
For you bear no truth

You're an illusion, like art
The end of a beautiful start
There yet is
A windy highway to your broken heart

I'm young and obliviously unworldly,
I cry and plead on my knees,

There's a black cloud up in my air,
But I smile, despite all this despair,

I've been shattered and knocked down,
But I still walk -with a halo being my crown,

"It's not about happiness but the worst days" they said,
"When you will learn to fly and not mourn instead."

I'm a secret you're strangely thrilled for,
The old mystery which could never go forth,

They pulled me to the ground but I rose higher,
Whenever I walked out of my shelter, my eyes were drier,

I keep a scabbord which you can't see,
Filled with sobs, words and vengeful dreams
To be continued.

Do you ever shave?
Just so you could play with a blade
And smile?
Even though inside you're only scared

Everyone worked and won,
Everyone came and now is gone
While I lay here on my bed,
In dark, with my skin gone wrong

Do you ever spend hopeless days?
And the nights romanticing your grave
Or is it just me?
The one who laughs but all in vain

I have become an ugly mess
And I'ld look disgusting, I confess
Even if I put on red lipstick
And a good dress

I feel like an unsteady wave
In a big blue ocean
Going away from the shore
Every time -only going away from everyone and everything
Will I end up at another shore?
Or will I forever be going away?

Today it rained
I stood there
And I remained.

I saw them rushing to their houses
Shouting
Making strange noises
But I remained!

The thunder couldn't scare me
As I looked above
Is it a felony?
If I remained?

Have you ever stood alone,
In a quiet, coveted night?
Just when the fireworks explod
And you stand in anything but fright?

I could hear the wind
It whispered in my ear
"Come take your unfathomed bling."
As yet, I remained.

Lightening all around me,
Lightening from above,
It made me feel free,
And so, I remained -
