Edge

I've been fighting for so long

I have shattered views and broken bones

Those closest to me

Hurt me the most, Burned me to the core

 

I smile, though I feel like dying

I'm frozen to the bones, still I keep on going

Shackled by my demons and fears

I hurt myself more than anyone could ever dream

 

You are the light to the dark side of me

The gates of Heaven could open with a single kiss

These emotions play with me dangerously

I would kneel at your feet, if it meant you'd love me

 

Even when the darkness subsides, shadows still remain

It's hard to believe you're not a phantasm...fleeting, then gone

The doubt coils around me, choking me

Its sick cadence infecting me, taunting me
