This road in my sorrowful life
It was paved with good intentions
Built upon the ground of strife
It holds secrets I never mention

Can't we just forget this world?
Tell it to lose us for the night
Becoming close with souls unfurled
Lye inseparable in moonlight

This can't happen anymore
For this road leads me astray
It still tears and rips to the core
I lost you in most every way

You scare me to the bone
Leave me trembling
Wanting so much more

Send me shivers through the phone
While I fear you
Afraid of your darkened soul

As my heart is being resown
You come closer
Attempting to finish the task

Can I run and be all alone?
No, your pull too strong
I slink to your side, accepting the pain

Gray hopelessness surrounds me
Red fire burns within the soul
Can’t I make you finally see?
We hide our hearts in a deep hole

These grays press me down
Gray pushes me to the brink
For a brief time, my fire drowns
My essence begins to sink

I smell the rotting gray I become
Burning the senses into nothing
My senses fight back some
A mud-covered friend came clinching

They near and I revive in colour
Tell me of their venture into dirt
Saw me falter under gray lure
Show me their gift wrapped in shirt

This prize emitted a red hue
I could make a new start
There’s nothing I cannot do
I now possess my own heart

Growing up was hard
But not the worst thing
Simply because I had you
To help me survive it all.

Let's give a hand, for the best.

If only words could express
All this gratitude inside
For without you I'd be lost
Among the swirling tides of life.

Let's sing a song, for the best.

Your life is not perfect
There were some hard times
But now you push through
Showing your strength to all.

Let's dance, for the best.

Swirling in life's mist
I barely could manage
Save you taught me enough
To find my way through the dark

Won't you join in this celebration?
Give your thanks, for the best.

Through all life does
We remained close, as we should
Now I'm bound for a new world
Because you gave me strength through life

I give a hand, sing a song, dance, and give thanks.
Don't you know it's for the best? I do.
Just be grateful, like a river to it's banks.
Who's the best you ask? Why that's you!

Black and warm beats within
Oh what a sight to behold
I'm so glad you took a knife
And cut in me a deep hole
Sure it hurts like hell
And now there's blood stains
But wasn't it worth it to find
Just how I feel inside

See how I am not so different
See how my heart beats intently

Now we all know, thanks to you
What my soul consists of
For once you ripped bone and flesh
Removing my inner-self
I no longer could hide what I am

So here I stand, broken like all
So here I stand just for you

Now everyone sees
This pain and longing
I can no longer escape the feeling
But will it matter?
Only time will show
If your heart beats for me
As mine for you
