I pray for you night and day.
Sometimes, as I do the dishes, or play videogames.
You look so gentle, you sleeping phoenix.
I know you're capable, but still,
I see you're fickle. I can't let you fade.

So I pray for you, night and day.
I'd miss you, a whole bunch,
if you listened to your tears,
if you gave in.
or gave up, no less.

I've been silent to let you speak now all I put to myself is noise,
it's not surprising to me that I got tired of your voice.
Your screaming got way too extra and it needs to be cut out.
So I put myself to where all I hear would be tasteful scream and shout.
By now I've given up on you,
because there's nothing else I can see to do.
You put this on yourself as well everyone around you.
And soon the burden will drown, don't forget your ego will too.

Crush me,
Add another blow,
What will one little hit do,
To an already drowned soul.

Choke me,
Smother my bones,
What good is the body,
With an ashen soul.

I tried my best this time I really did!
To start all over and try to feel happiness again.
But just like that, life dragged me down.
Leaving me  empty and useless
For what's a king without a crown?
A new beginning that came to an end
Trying to hold in the demons,
so my heart can finally  mend.

Yet I'm just a slave of a constant depression
a body with no soul,  dripping teardrops of perfection.
I hoped for a chance but I was just given a fate,
relying on the bottle and taking the pills for a date .

I'm racing my life down,
Leaving with traces of evil
Theres no point in trying
when your left with
a stitch and a broken needle.

Don't give up on her.
If you give up on her,
She will give up on her too.

I went to church
I asked for forgiveness from a god I don't even know if I believe in
I fell in love, and
I ****** it up
I broke my own heart again
I put my faith in the hands of a damaged lover and
I paid the price
I got my hopes up
I waited by the door for my father for two years
I remember him as the first man to hurt me
I dusted myself off and tried again
I prayed for guidance from above even if
I didn't know if it was a god or an overhead light that heard me
I wanted salvation
I looked for it in a bottle but came up empty
I hated my body
I begged it to be different, for him
I failed my own goals
I lied to my mother so much I lost track
I wished I was different but did nothing to change it
I ran away
I came back
I picked up where I left off
I hoped for the best
I began to try
All about me!
abandoned by her mother and father
to take on this cold world alone
no voice left in my throat
to sing the melodies in the song
such a strong girl, yet I break down every night
never forgive you, you let me take on this fight
by myself, without your help
salvation is what I seek
I call your phone one hundred times
leaving voicemails that pled
yet you still don't seem to care
I face my hard times desolate
deserted, this life is hurting
me, myself, and I
why can't I overcome the trials.
just want to be put to sleep
internally in peace
This song
Will never disappear
It will never have been here

But it won’t be forgotten

Cause the words
Will never have been seen
The chords will never ring

And it’s all come out rotten

Cause the name behind the words
Will never be known
Never be known
And the heart behind the art
Will never be shown
It will go unknown
But that’s okay
All our names will one day fade away

The note
Will never be replied
The ink will never dry

Cause it won’t see the light of day

It’s smeared
between the irony
This world will never see

What I was trying to say

Cause the name behind the words
Will never be known
Never be known
And the heart behind the art
Will never be shown
It will go unknown
But that’s okay
All our names will one day fade away
