There's a saying going around
That blood is thicker than water
But is it the blood of the family?
Or is there more to offer?
It's the blood of the loved ones
that have made a place in your heart
It's the blood of who cares
and tries to play a part
of this life proven only as torture
as we try to get around
we only have our departure
we go farther away
but to what extent?
Where there is family
Your bloodline always extends
This goes out to my internet friends. My REAL family.

I've finally opened up
I've let you see me truly
I wish you had more to say
Than "It gets better, trust me"

You say you've been in my position
And I doubt that you know a thing
What I go through is strictly hell
And you can't begin to know what I'm feeling

When you're this close to death
Do you have time for prayer
When you've suffered this long
Do you really care
If they say it gets better
Cause I'm much easier to ****
Than I am to repair

I've heard sorrow is just weakness
And that depression is a crutch
They've tried to stuff me with "magic pills"
But... They don't do much

But that isn't what I want
I don't want a temporary patch
I want someone to be there
I want someone to have my back

"It's okay to be sad
It's normal to be angry
Don't let them say something
Out of the ordinary
You're trying your best
And I am proud of you
And just see those impossible things
As just little tests
You're doing your best in your own way
And I'm here to tell you that it is okay"

We stand in silence
We're rarely broken
We have our limits
We have our moments

You push them
And you break them
You try and get through
Well let me just tell you
We will come after you

You just broke a barrier
You crossed the final line
They say the more the merrier
And that's just fine
You push me to my limit
You'll hear me roar
Demons hide
When a good man goes to war

We will wait around
And wait to strike
We listen to you talk
Just to find a weak point

We tolerate the good
Until we've had enough
You can try break through
But there is nothing that can save you

You just broke a barrier
You crossed the final line
They say the more the merrier
And that's just fine
You push me to my limit
You'll hear me roar
Demons hide
When a good man goes to war

You see that line there
Let's test your patience
You see that wall there
Let's see how long it takes
For you break me
And when knock me down

You would've broken through a barrier
And crossed a line
It'll take more than one of you
To make us die
Don't forget to run
When you hear us roar
Don't forget that demons hide
When a good man goes to war

As we lie in wait for a painless death
We sleep alone and wait with held breath
To sleep in the arms of one who cares
Not as romantic, or loves,
But as two who understand what the other bears

Wouldn't that be true beauty?
Two humans in each other's arms
Humans that are untouched by the evils
The evils of death and pain and harm

I wish there was a way that you could lay here with me
And it wouldn't be ****** or romantic in any way

But as the night was once taken
By the everlasting Death
We too must lie in hope
That Death does not return
And take us both whole

I came here innocent
Just as the day starts
Clean and free of evil
Then the darkness comes and breaks our hearts

They started to change me
into what I am today
and I don't know if you can tell
But I've become the monster of the demon's hell

They led me astray
Onto a path that's broken and frayed
When they told me to lead them
I refused and turned away

But in the nightmares of demons
Where I seem to appear
I walk around in peace
But that's what the demons seem to fear

And what will become of this monster
Will I continue on peacefully
Or give up halfway through
Whatever path I create for myself
I hope it leads to you

Well is this what it's like
The longevity of a human life
The sorrow one goes through
As a result of one's own strife

Could this be what I've prepared for
What the schools, and the teachers
and the fools have fallen for
Why can't I go out on my own path
and try to get out of the way of other's wrath

So what can I do
to get out of the darkness
out of the hell
That I've created
from the well of my soul
and the pain that came out of it
If there's a light at the end
please.... Just bring it.

— The End —
