If I could I surely would,
Shake your filth from my shoulders,
Like a bad dream I would forget you,
Stomp you out, prevent the spread,
Of evil thoughts to ruin me,
But you have left me weak.
I cannot fight you,
I cannot protest,
I cannot shut out your words,
Or ***** out my disgust,
I am choked with the dust,
Of the rest of the Forgotten,
And I have ceased to live.

Death is the breath,
Before the plunge,
Into icy water,
That swiftly runs.
Death is a rose,
Iron stemmed and thorned,
It ****** a finger,
And does not mourn.
Why do we this burden bear?
This sickly thing,
That picks our brains,
And pulls our hair?
"We have no choice,"
Say us all,
"We all must walk the dreaded hall, 
Death's cackle all will hear,
Low and slow, in their ear.
All will feel when time is near,
The heart, icy chilled, with fear.
All will bate their precious breath,
When death, so snugly, starts to set,
And nevermore, to life, returneth."

All the things I thought we'd be,
All the things  I thought we'd see,
I would hold so close to me!
Were it not for sharpest shards,
Of my shattered dream.
If only you had seen,
All that I had seen,
Would that have brought you back to me?
I saw us happy, smiling,
We weren't crying,
We weren't fighting,
We weren't lying.
I guess that's when it happened,
When it fell apart,
When you heard your heart,
Telling you to leave.
You walked swiftly out the door,
Nothing ever hurt me more.
I cut my hands picking up the shards,
Of my shattered dream.

Your soul is restless,
I can tell.
You're going to leave,
It's just as well.
Please don't say,"You know I care."
My reply will be,
A blank, cold stare.
You've left me here,
With many tears,
My head's submerged,
With all my fears,
They're drowning all my memories,
They start to fade, I fear.
Your laugh will fade,
Your voice will fade,
Your touch will fade,
Your face will fade,
But not your eyes...They will remain.

I love the smile upon your face.
When everything is out of place,
You are in yours.
Kissing my lips,
With fevered haste,
With that sweet smile,
Upon your face.

Your dreams were crushed,
You crushed mine too.
You heart was hurt,
And mine hurt too.
You were abused,
So was I,
You were left alone,
I only wish I was.
Your mind was severed, broken,
So you took mine.
Your body's ripped,
You made us match.
You were cheated,
So was I,
I was cheated out of life,
And for all it could have been,
I cry alone at night.
As you are broken, I am,
As you are bitter, I am,
As you are angry, I am,
As you are hardened, I am,
As you are alone, I am,
But as you are hated, I am not.

My heart had many empty places,
So I filled my mind with faces,
And I mixed my life with people.
So few and far between,
Are now the empty places,
They are filled with the happy faces,
Of everyone I've let in.
