Don't you ******* see?
This world you have made?
Full of pain and anger,
All happiness will only fade...
                                                        ­                        I know what I have done.
                                                           ­                         But what else can I do?
                                                             ­                   I fight off the nightmares
                                                      ­                   That haunt my night through
You can't control your demons
without losing everyone around
So just give up this fight
Or you will surely drown*
                                                          ­               You're right, I have no choice
                                                          ­                      But to sleep forevermore
                                                     ­                          So I will lay myself to rest
                                                            ­         On this freshly reddened shore
Focus. Focus. Please just focus.
The words don't ******* heal.
I can't seem to concentrate
On anything that's real.

Spinning in this blackness
I'm running all alone
You claim to be beside me
as I break my heart of stone.

As the shards fall all around
like the hope I held inside
You try to sweep it up
Like a secret we must hide

I knew I chose my fate correctly
I showed you who I was that day
The demons that I do carry
Keep all who might love at bay
I ran from these demons
For all my ******* life
Now I stand in their presence
With inner strength and might
You thought you could control me
I scream with a grimacing face
No longer can you hold me down
As I shot them and sealed my fate
So as they were ripped forever
From my scarred memories
I came at last to that final man
Who has been as steady as the sea
So you finally found a way around
This everlasting game? He asked
I smiled from behind my gun
And fired my freeing shot at last
Taught of our scars
And life’s many pains
She will be lifted beyond
Our tattered remains

Brought into this life
As a gift from above
She saves us for good
As a product of love
Mysteries drive us
Insanity makes us
We live in chaos

But onward we march
Into the depths
The black and lonely dark

Forever searching
Trying to brave through it all
Unsure of the next moment
What is Death?
Our end.
A mere figure.
A deadly force.

Is it for us to know?
Or to guess wildly.
Or even blindly accept.

Why must we meet this stranger?
Can we not be ended in familiarity?

Will these questions mean a thing when we meet?
Shimmering with darkness
Forever stuck in shadows
Your soul reaches out
To be saved from itself

Yet none show such kindness
None understand this pain
All left you in deeper depths
Which seemed impossible to leave

Then things began to change
Happiness seemed to reign
For another was found
Another with black wounds

Attempting to help you
Bearing their soul
Holding you tight
Suffering by your side
