Creating doubt Creating lies Fashioning secrets What more do I despise I guess I should thank you

Can you see A shadow in the dark The monsters lurking Waiting to tear you apart The blood of their latest victim

A double-edged blade in my conscie… Of battle and freedom, Of death and loss. I fight for my country, When they fight for theirs,

Death and decay follow me, Like a shadow I cannot escape. I hear the screams of the fallen, In my dreams, How I wish I could wake.

Sadness Hopeless Broken Bruised You tell me you know

What’s the point When your all alone Nobody there to love you Not even in your home Sometimes I feel

You believe you’re nothing, A placeholder for something. Worthless and unwanted, You’re wrong. I believe you’re something,

I never thought I never dreamed Is what you say Really what it seems You make the effort

When did you insert your claws int… My lonely beating heart imprisoned… Knocked around until I can’t take… Yet still I am your slave I can’t shake this new development

Heart black as death Laugh cold as night Holding me hostage In your torturous might Grasping my final breath

Laying in my casket Looking down from above Watching all the people With whom I shared my love I never realized

What once was mine, And completely whole. Now wanders away, Devastatingly alone. But t creeps back,

You never realize You never know How afraid you are When your truly alone Nobody left beside you

Buried deep inside Hidden from view Walls towering so high With no way through Then you came along
