I roamed and lived on with hope that I would be saved Then pitch black ink stained my heart And the light that kept me smiling was lost for good I grew faster than my body My soul has wrinkles and chains that tie it down I escaped one prison just to be incarcerated in another My dim dull eyes became darker I used to cry myself to sleep once I could no longer smile And drowned in my own blood just so that I could sleep without pain Time passed and the oceans all dried With sliver mistakes staining my body I continue on this journey My demons ruled my life Fear was a constant treat With a bruised and ****** cry I'd burned in the rage that soon followed I crumbled into ashes of grief From the ashes I was resurrected with a second chance at life I was weak, I was glass I could take a few hard hits before I cracked and shattered into insignificant shards With my second life though, I was reborn with a body of ice I became cold and strong With this strength I conquered my demons and paved a new road I was scared and broken, small and fragile Now I'm dark and powerful With a soul that's lived a thousand years I marched prepared for battle I used to dream of my savior My knight that would save me from the dark The one who would end all the hurt But I had no savior, no one came I became my own salvation I'm all that I have, all that I can trust Once, I had a heart But then my mind was opened and my heart broken The angelic boy of the past is now the warrior of today I used to be weak and trust in my non-existing savior Now I'm strong and a lone warrior I once loved and hoped Now I'm dead inside and my only salivation

Savior
I roamed and lived on with hope that I would be saved Then pitch black ink stained my heart And the light that kept me smiling was lost for good I grew faster than my body My soul has wrinkles and chains that tie it down I escaped one prison just to be incarcerated in another My dim dull eyes became darker I used to cry myself to sleep once I could no longer smile And drowned in my own blood just so that I could sleep without pain Time passed and the oceans all dried With sliver mistakes staining my body I continue on this journey My demons ruled my life Fear was a constant treat With a bruised and ****** cry I'd burned in the rage that soon followed I crumbled into ashes of grief From the ashes I was resurrected with a second chance at life I was weak, I was glass I could take a few hard hits before I cracked and shattered into insignificant shards With my second life though, I was reborn with a body of ice I became cold and strong With this strength I conquered my demons and paved a new road I was scared and broken, small and fragile Now I'm dark and powerful With a soul that's lived a thousand years I marched prepared for battle I used to dream of my savior My knight that would save me from the dark The one who would end all the hurt But I had no savior, no one came I became my own salvation I'm all that I have, all that I can trust Once, I had a heart But then my mind was opened and my heart broken The angelic boy of the past is now the warrior of today I used to be weak and trust in my non-existing savior Now I'm strong and a lone warrior I once loved and hoped Now I'm dead inside and my only salivation
