I try to be true to myself
I want to be free
But when I show my courage
It reminds me of who I turned out to be

I bleed the colors of my pride
But I hope I don’t lose to much
Or I may fear for my life

I want this simple life
I long for simple times
As you left this Earth
I wish I didn’t have to cry
But it was a shame to let you go

I did my best to make things right
I searched the havens and Earth for you
But I just needed to give your time

In the end
It was just the two of us
After I have exhausted all my foes
The pain I caused for satisfaction
Wasn’t worth adding to all your woes

I’ve only thought about myself
For my devotion has been fickle at times
Life is a long game of chess
But when I felt like it was time to be defeated
You helped me see past this test

Now I wait
And I don’t know
If I’ll ever see you again
You’ve touched my heart
And made it for the better
I just hope I don’t lose my way
Because if it’s too late
I’ll surely lose it all
But for now let’s enjoy
Right now, today
