To all those who need to hear this:
Why give up now?
Why now, when your life is about to begin?
We don’t give up, love
Say it with me
WE DON’T GIVE UP!

Today
marks the day
of a new kind of Triumph
My whole life I have sought your approval and praise
Knowing that in me you were always ashamed
Humans have always feared what they don't understand
But I am done being cut by the knife in your hand
Today is my freedom, I've escaped the cage!
Now your attention I no longer crave
I've taken the knife from your bloodied embrace
I've taken my freedom and I won't leave a trace
I've been held back and held down for far too long
What you see as my weaknesses are what make me strong
I know I am an oddity, a wild one, a mystery
But my twisted mind's what allows me to truly see!
I see when the end justifies all the means
I'm learning to listen to the voice in my dreams
Battle cries are everywhere and I know now to listen
I've been Awakened and through Triumph have risen
I see your embarrassment from my strange behaviors
But today I see past all your noise and distraction
I no longer care what you see when you look at me
Not ashamed or afraid, today I am free!

I dream
of the apocalypse
long for it
fantasize daily
of what it would be like
the world as we know it
ending
never to be the same again
the pain of lost nostalgia
society crumbling
a fresh start
I long to see human nature
stripped down to animal form
raw fury
primal instincts
we would all be killers
wild and desperate
so focused on survival
we'd forget about all the petty things that used to matter
everything would be different
no one would have to hide anymore
I WOULDN'T HAVE TO HIDE ANYMORE!
we could succumb to it
the darkness
the Monster
it wouldn't matter
the demons that plague you
who you love
who you are
all your deepest
darkest
secrets
suddenly simply methods of survival
I would survive, I think
we would
alone
together
just fighting zombies
let's be honest:
they aren't that bad anyway
someday, society would be reborn
a new one
post-apocalyptic
we would go back to what we once were
creatures of the night
of blood and beauty
but for a while, nothing but
anarchy
lawlessness
pure desperate survival
where nothing matters
and everything goes
I dream
of the apocalypse

Once
One
Oblivious to the pain of the world
And of herself
The split
Began
When she could not handle
Her reality
One
Became
Three
But they were not done
These troubled souls
Mourned
Together
Held each other up
But it was not enough
They were
Helpless
Doomed to watch their cruel fate unfold
So three grew into five
Five
Different
The same
Whole
Divided
They thought they were done
Five is plenty
But 6
7?
Must be
Better
Safety in numbers
A motley family
Concealed inside a single
Body
Pain
And safety
Dissociation
And protection
We are a far cry from that little girl

Is it finally over?
Living in fear
Of those I am supposed to trust
Breaking free of the cage
The latest prophesy reoccurring
I wondered what it meant
Could it just be a change in mindset?
Is it finally over?
Hiding who I truly am
Who WE truly are
Masking
Pretending
To be whole, to be one
Is it finally over?
Fearing we will have to hide forever
Wondering if anyone will ever believe us
Wondering if anyone will ever care
Was it a misunderstanding all along?
Were we isolating ourselves without reason
Believing it will be not different than the other times
Are they finally ready to listen?
Hope is a cruel thing
Please don’t hurt us again

failed
transformation
broken
Metamorphosis
you were not Gifted
or
Cursed
now you are split
not merged
not strong
your butterfly
has malformed wings
good
Monster
striking
failing
unable to comprehend
who
you
are
I thought you could be a
role model
an example on
who I should be
but now I see
you showed me what I must do
but not how to do it
you do not understand
you don't know
who
you
are
the beautiful thing
you could have become
you are lost
split
broken
I inherited this creature, this Monster
from you
but I understand it
accept it
embrace it!
my Metamorphosis will succeed
Alii Semper Vincemus!
you will see
I will show you
who
you
are
you are broken
clinging desperately to
shaky
control
you must see that it's not working
you will break
and then you will see
who
you
are
I love you anyway

"Maybe I am cursed, maybe I am gifted
something tore inside of me now everything has shifted
I've been feeling twisted
I've been feeling twisted
Call me paranoid, call it my addiction
But I could lose my head with just a little bit of friction
I've been feeling twisted
Oh I've been feeling twisted"
I'm not quite sure I understand
Like, am I cursed, will my hands
cause anguish, torture, death and pain
Or can I use this to my gain?
every day I fall apart
use the songs to build me up
with promises of future triumph
but is prophesy enough?
Can I tame the Monster inside
Or am I doomed to be its slave
Or one day will I testify
For His will was all this pain
I have to trust in what is coming
Keep fighting, running, screaming, gunning
perhaps what is seen as cursed and hopeless
can be used to bring his gain
ok, we can do this
Together now we've got this
Alii Semper Vincemus!
We will triumph, they can't stop us
We will not surrender now
everything is going right
someday things will get better
as long as we choose to fight
So maybe I'm Cursed
But maybe I am gifted too
and maybe I can use these powers
to bring glory to You
The shifts inside me bring both beauty and pain
I sense friction is coming
and friction I crave
Sure, I'm scared
But I no longer bow to fear
I know what I've been called to do
All this pain helps me prepare

Broken wings have I
Seeking sunset skies
They fear what happens when I fly
Longing after sunset skies
Keeping on
Keeping on
For what else am I meant to do?
Lying broken
Bloodied wings
But I keep on fighting on for you
Crying out with broken beak
Begging for reprieve
Pleading pleading, please don't leave
Without you, don't know what I'll do
They wish for me to stay down low
righteously afraid
afraid they are, of me, you see
So they cannot let me go
I know, I know
I know so well
that suffering is sure to follow
this pain this pain of every day
is insolent and hard to swallow
Hold me tight
tight as you can
but I will sure escape
beating newly strengthened wings
I leave you in my wake
you tried you failed
to keep me here
alive I am and will not fear
anything that comes my way
Surely you have learned by now
surely I have shown you
You cannot hold me down!
I laugh for joy and fly away

They told us we're insane
We were under attack
Helpless
Afraid
But we triumphed
Alii Semper Vincemus!
We triumphed
And everything is going to be ok
But we couldn't have done it alone
Without each other
we would have failed
One to be friendly
and social and innocent
To be adored and underestimated
One to stand firm
and protect and defend
To keep on fighting till there's nothing left
One to charm
and be unbothered by everything
To be confident and relaxed and fearless
One to strategize
and organize and lead
to know just how to get what we want
One to prove that we are correct
and whose purpose is not yet known
To make mistakes but make up for them
One to keep us all together
and appear as though we are solid and one
To be a mix and mediate and rejoice in our triumph
We are the Others, all of us united
Though difficult to understand
I have been taught that faith is about not needing to understand
to believe it is real
And this has been a true test of faith
But the Others are as real as anyone else
And I will never stop fighting for them
and for me
Alii Semper Vincemus!
