Reduced to a shadow of the former self I now remain here, just a farce A figment of imagination Conquests and glories, lie by the wayside I stand now naked, burnt and exposed The road now rocky, lonely and dark Beckons now to me, with thorny open arms My demons once far behind me Now, stand with me...

I waited for the morning rays, A light to end this pitch black night. But the sun it did not rise today, And darkness reigns, no light today. Maybe to me darkness is home, Where I live with my pitch black heart. But still I hope with all my heart, That light will shine and fill my...

We walked the hills, And roamed the streets; We shared our meals, And shared our dreams. Those days of old, Those days so pure; I left behind, Along with you. I went away, To chase my dreams; You stayed behind, To try to live. The years have passed, We're still apart; I wish for rain, I wish for you. Forgive me please, My sins so deep; Against your...

I deserve my death, But you not the pain. You so pure of heart, I impure and black. I know you mourn, For my dark light. But it is...

I've lived my life, In random abandon; I've destroyed lives, And plundered souls. And now mine own, Set in harms way; A lightning strike, Straight through my heart....

Here on this parched earth, Life in strife reigns still. Hear 'O' my brother, The cry of your heart. Fear not yourself friend, You are wiser than you know. Clear your mind of doubt, Reach now the stars to keep....

You have been hurt, You have been wronged; Your dreams thwarted, And love betrayed. But you stand strong, Stubborn and firm; Defying your odds, Denying your pain. Bold dark and beautiful, You stand facing them; The demons of your past, The innocence that was lost....

I searched for words A clever line to say; I strived to to find, Something to impress you with; But I failed to see, You loved but the simple me....
