it's hard to hold tight
when you want to let go
its hard to not fight
against the dangers below

the path that i walk is one that's well tread
i dream a dream that others have led
but, i focus on that mountain
no, i wont take a bow
not until I'm up on that stage
and you look at me and say "how?"

how? because i fought
how? because i was taught
never forget the path that you choose
if you do that then i promise, you will never lose

this is my advice to those who follow me
stay true to yourself and you'll always be free

Listen to my heart beat
For I cannot hear the sound.

Listen to the rhythm
As water pulls me down.

Listen for my call
For I cannot breathe.

Listen for the cackle
As the fire continues to seethe.

Listen for the silence
For that is our new beginning.

born of magic, torn from life
cursed to feed on other's strife
immortal life is cursed indeed
living on a horrid greed
from year to year he wanders much
searching for his lover's touch
but there is beauty in self control
a glimpse of humanity left it's toll
for even though time has passed
there is nothing more pure than love that lasts
but with a soul in question, who would dare
to give their love into eternal despair
so a choice must be made
life for life forever is the trade
eternal damnation, that is the price
for love together, a homicidal vice
but no choice is made and time marches on
accidents happen and in a blink, she's gone
now he walks the beaten path
the ****** pilgrim, humanity replaced by wrath

I try and leave you messages
I try and be discreet
I try to be coy and cunning
But it’s not me you seek

I laugh at all your jokes
I’m the one who’s always there
I’m the one who loves you
Don’t you see why I care?

I try to make you notice
I try to show the truth
I try to give you hints
But you’re not Holmes, you sleuth.

You’re as obtuse as an angle
You’re as bright as a rock
But today you noticed me
I guess you’re smarter than I thought.

So far away are you
Each day our love grew.
Like flowers in meadow-
So attainable and free-
But flowers cannot compare
Not to you, and not to me.
Our paths have crossed for reasons
Like a shinning shooting star
I know I can never reach it
No matter how truly far-
The distance shatters
And for a second I am yours
But right as rain,
We cannot attain,
This love born from infinite space.

I wish that you were near me
I’m all alone up here,
I see that you are lonely
But know that I am near

I’ll wait for you my darling
Until the day you come,
For I will always be with you
You’re heart is where I’m from.

I miss your warm embrace
I miss your gentle call,
But now I’ll wait for you my dear
I’ll catch you when you fall.
