When you introduced me to your new love
My heart broke
Sure we may have just been friends
But at least there was a glimmer of hope
Now however
There is nothing
But my broken heart
And the emotional flood that pours from myself
As I slowly cry myself to death

It pains me to see you with other guys
Though I knew it would never be
But
I can't help but wish that I was he

One by one
The dominoes fall
According to some master plan
The falling dominoes
Setting off a chain reaction

One by one
The dominoes fall
All in a line
Going on until done
Going until the final product is revealled

One by one
The dominoes fall
Life as we know it has finished

I am that I am
Nothing more
Nothing less

I am free to travel life’s pathways
To journey to the unknown
To enjoy each footstep
As I walk the path of life

I live for the adventure of it all
To take on what life brings
To meet the challenges of each day
To not back down

I am free to love
To share my emotional state with another
To share compassion
To be one with those around me

One
One beat
One song
One voice
One

One beat pounding out it’s constant tone throughout eternity
One song joins the beat giving it movement and action
One voice calling from the wild
Calling to all who will listen
The voice brings words, power, and grace

The beat is existence
The beat is life itself
The song brings movement and action
The voice brings words, glory, and power
The voice is by which we express ourselves to the rest of creation

The beat always was
Always is
Always will be
even before the beginning of time itself
The beat was
The song drives the beat forward
It creates movement and action
The song is throughout all creation everyday
The voice pours from the mouths of every human being
It pours from the human soul and heart
Words that bring joy
Words that bring pain
Words that just are

One beat
One song
One voice
Three parts yet all work as one

The bones of the past
They haunt me
The blood of the past
Spills over me like a waterfall
The sins of the past
Causes many tears

I had a dream one night
I was walking through a field of complete waste
Bones started coming out of the ground
Voices from these remains
Started shouting accusing me of such shame
As punishment I am to walk the land
Alone until the end of time

A stack of bone lies in the middle of the field
The skulls start their chanting of accusation
“You left me hungry”
“You did not cloth me”
“You left me out in the cold”
On and on the accusations came without end
Blood starts in the center of the stack and is forced outward
Before the blood reaches me I move on

The ghosts of my victims Float around me
Taunting me and shouting their curses
They throw their bones at me
I beg for forgiveness
However they give me none

I woke in a pool of sweat
Tears streaming from my face
“I am sorry “I shout
“I am sorry”

Their bones forever haunt me
Their blood seeps into my skin
Their voices constantly scream
I can run
I can not hide

I am a solder
Though I fight a different kind of war

Day by day my inner demons come
Marching in line
Banging their drums
Flags waving
Acting proud
Ready to tear this poor man down

Day by day
I fight
I can't let them win
Each day's a victory
Or sometimes a loss
Upon the waves of desturction
My emotions get tossed

I know if I continue fighting
If I never back down
That in the end
I shall win

I am a solder
Though I fight a different kind of war
