Half to Make a Whole The idea of you was constantly wished for, obsessively even After the battles, the victories, and all the emotions in between There I was, in the middle and lost in anger Stuck in bitterness, drowning in sadness Black tears in my pillow and papers scrawled in doom If only I’d known then Under the same stars, under the same moon In the middle of a battle not many miles away There you were too Through all the lies Through all the spite With every self threat With every dry click click click I pitied myself as I sat there alone Little did I know Years kept passing, and the world kept turning I saw snow capped mountains, glistening in the light I saw big black demons, some took me by the hand I flew up in the air and spiraled down to the earth I took many paths in the forest of the unknown I and walked them alone Soon I was free, I found my own me I found a small light to end all of the night An old idea surfaced, a truth was told I’d walked many paths But I never walked them alone Under the same sky Across boundaries made by man You waited with patience Forced to watch from afar One day we’d unite And that day would come soon I don’t know the rules Not the protocol even But as soon as my eyes were open All of my love was given A half and a half, indeed they make a whole All of the times I felt alone Little had I known.

Half to Make a Whole
Half to Make a Whole The idea of you was constantly wished for, obsessively even After the battles, the victories, and all the emotions in between There I was, in the middle and lost in anger Stuck in bitterness, drowning in sadness Black tears in my pillow and papers scrawled in doom If only I’d known then Under the same stars, under the same moon In the middle of a battle not many miles away There you were too Through all the lies Through all the spite With every self threat With every dry click click click I pitied myself as I sat there alone Little did I know Years kept passing, and the world kept turning I saw snow capped mountains, glistening in the light I saw big black demons, some took me by the hand I flew up in the air and spiraled down to the earth I took many paths in the forest of the unknown I and walked them alone Soon I was free, I found my own me I found a small light to end all of the night An old idea surfaced, a truth was told I’d walked many paths But I never walked them alone Under the same sky Across boundaries made by man You waited with patience Forced to watch from afar One day we’d unite And that day would come soon I don’t know the rules Not the protocol even But as soon as my eyes were open All of my love was given A half and a half, indeed they make a whole All of the times I felt alone Little had I known.
