I expect nothing less.


Here I stand before you all;
Empty of thought.
A mind of wall’s without a door.


In a time of need, I am without aid;
I believed in true love, but I will never do that again.
I gave to love everything that I could have given;
She walked away and left me behind alive,
But I am not truly living.


People expect; I expect nothing less,
But I have nothing left to give to a thing I no longer believe in.
Beauty all around, but none of it will I need today,
Because I have nothing but pain, to remind me why I must remain,
A Metalhead with no time to waste on regrets.
I have been able to love in the past, but I can never forget,
What love has caused; the endless chores.
This endless sadness that they call love.


The reason to fall; love puts you down like a dying dog.
A glimpse of bliss is a lie we all believe,
But I am still grieving down on my knees
And I am without strength and I am without doubt,
That again I will be lied to, if they tell me I need to love again
And if I agree…I will only weep.
