If the spirit isn't broke,
Yet all your dreams are up in smoke,
Whose ego will you now stroke?
Was it always a joke?

Now
You see me
Now you don’t
I hide behind barriers
I draw lines
And I don’t cross them
My walls are high
My mirrors they are confusing
The smoke it’s thick
And I
I am scared to let anyone in

When she promised to never leave
She forgot to mention the card she had in her sleeve
When he promised to keep you from your demon
But left you on the floor screaming
When she held your heart in her hand and then threw it to the cold floor
Spat in your face and walked out the door
When he kissed your forehead before you slept
Then out of your bed he crept
When she whispered she loved you in your ear
Then was the reason for a tear
When he held your hand when you walked down the street
Just to leave you at night drowning your bed sheet
When she made you smile day and night
Then she was out of sight
When he noticed the little things about you
Just for you to realise the promises were never true
When she made you trust her completely
Then made you feel like jumping of the balcony
When he looked you in your eyes and said he loved you
Then bid you adieu.

There's a devil in each of us,
And an angel lives there too.
I saw the angel inside me,
Begging in tears to be set free.
But the devil stepped up,
shutting her up for so long.
I almost forgot her plea,
So I carved to set her free.
No one did understand,
How much this meant to me.
They stopped me for good,
Which stopped me from good.
It's been too long since then,
When i last saw her,
I'm afraid they killed the angel in me...
