Edge
On the edge of betrayal
Life, truly so frail
Setting sail
To new shores, may we not fail
Standing upon the precipice
Death truly must be bliss
Away from all pain
Somewhere, to remain sane
Escaping to vast open fields
What life truly yields
Eternity
Of uncertainty
But as I decay
My last thoughts fray
A smile glowing up
From past embers, abrupt
My life fades away
Life, truly so frail
Setting sail
To new shores, may we not fail
Standing upon the precipice
Death truly must be bliss
Away from all pain
Somewhere, to remain sane
Escaping to vast open fields
What life truly yields
Eternity
Of uncertainty
But as I decay
My last thoughts fray
A smile glowing up
From past embers, abrupt
My life fades away

So let me dream
So let me dream
Fade away into my blissful solitude
Escape from all I wish to elude
Beside a rippling stream
So let me dream
A vast open world
Roam alone in this realm so cold
Let me scream
Run 'till I tire
Set the world ablaze in fire
Traverse upon this tripwire
So let me dream
Upon this edge of loneliness
Fade away into my blissful solitude
Escape from all I wish to elude
Beside a rippling stream
So let me dream
A vast open world
Roam alone in this realm so cold
Let me scream
Run 'till I tire
Set the world ablaze in fire
Traverse upon this tripwire
So let me dream
Upon this edge of loneliness

Tomorrow will get me again
Tomorrow will get me again
Everything... is closing... iiinnnn
Everything inside is dead
Tomorrow will get me again!!
The death of me
The pain I'm in
From watching you walk awwaaayyy!!!
Trying to... find a way out
To end this all!!!!
But a promise I made
A promise I'll keep 'till the eennndd!!!
Tomorrow will get me again
A life without you
A life full of pain
A life without meaning
The life that I'm leadinggggg
Tomorrow will get me again
Everything... is closing... iiinnn
Everything...
Everything... is closing... iiinnnn
Everything inside is dead
Tomorrow will get me again!!
The death of me
The pain I'm in
From watching you walk awwaaayyy!!!
Trying to... find a way out
To end this all!!!!
But a promise I made
A promise I'll keep 'till the eennndd!!!
Tomorrow will get me again
A life without you
A life full of pain
A life without meaning
The life that I'm leadinggggg
Tomorrow will get me again
Everything... is closing... iiinnn
Everything...

Woeful sorrow
This woeful sorrow
Soul longing for tomorrow
Trying to find a way
Just to get through today!!
Path laid out in front of me!!
Trying to get through today!!
Left to fray
To find a way!!
Just to get through today!!
I'm yearning!
I'm burning!!
My mind keeps on turning!!!
This woeful sorrow...
Finding my way!!
To get through today!!
To face this all...
Make my way home
Just to feel alone
Surrounded by others
I push my head under covers
I scream!! ...
Soul longing for tomorrow
Trying to find a way
Just to get through today!!
Path laid out in front of me!!
Trying to get through today!!
Left to fray
To find a way!!
Just to get through today!!
I'm yearning!
I'm burning!!
My mind keeps on turning!!!
This woeful sorrow...
Finding my way!!
To get through today!!
To face this all...
Make my way home
Just to feel alone
Surrounded by others
I push my head under covers
I scream!! ...

Burden
Lack of rhyme
Not to waste time
Trying to converse
But I'll use this verse
With no one to whom I could speak
If I did you'd know I were a freak
Those who "care"
Those that never dare
They never want to know
What is really rolling and turning
They care not for this burning
They might see it all for show
This mind...
This burden I have of never showing who I really am...
Not to waste time
Trying to converse
But I'll use this verse
With no one to whom I could speak
If I did you'd know I were a freak
Those who "care"
Those that never dare
They never want to know
What is really rolling and turning
They care not for this burning
They might see it all for show
This mind...
This burden I have of never showing who I really am...

A single thread
A life that should not be
A mind yearning to be free
An end to find
To free this mind
This mind that seeks to find
One of its kind
Eyes that flicker with light
Yet behind there is night
Love was found
Love was lost
My heart was sound
At what cost
A promise I made
This promise will fade
To free this mind
Will it find
It's own kind
Or just Unwind
A mind yearning to be free
An end to find
To free this mind
This mind that seeks to find
One of its kind
Eyes that flicker with light
Yet behind there is night
Love was found
Love was lost
My heart was sound
At what cost
A promise I made
This promise will fade
To free this mind
Will it find
It's own kind
Or just Unwind

My life
I sit day by day
Wishing for a way
I want it
I need it
A way out
With no doubt
My life must end
I always tend
To think about this
Maybe my moment of bliss
My time to die
My time to die
It's been 8 years now
I cant think how
How dit I make it this far
With my life on par
With that of a nobody
My life it seems will end without
Somebody
Wishing for a way
I want it
I need it
A way out
With no doubt
My life must end
I always tend
To think about this
Maybe my moment of bliss
My time to die
My time to die
It's been 8 years now
I cant think how
How dit I make it this far
With my life on par
With that of a nobody
My life it seems will end without
Somebody

L
A broken heart
Yet I'll play my part
I'll be your toy
Just till you decide to stay with you boy
With no plans for tomorrow
All i feel is sorrow
Yet happiness shines
Burns like a star
In the far
Away from my gloom
Without my doom
I'll find a way
To embrace the day
Yet I'll play my part
I'll be your toy
Just till you decide to stay with you boy
With no plans for tomorrow
All i feel is sorrow
Yet happiness shines
Burns like a star
In the far
Away from my gloom
Without my doom
I'll find a way
To embrace the day

Just kill me
Oh just kill me now...
Because I'm fucking cold
I'm fucking cold... inside
Just kill me now
You take my breath
You take my breath ... away
You make me feel alive, but its all for nothingggg... because I'm dead inside...
Oh just kill me now
Just kill me now...
Because
I'm fucking cold
I'm fucking cold inside...
Oh just leave me aside...
Just leave me to die...
Because I just let you down
Because I'm fucking cold inside
Because I'm fucking cold
I'm fucking cold... inside
Just kill me now
You take my breath
You take my breath ... away
You make me feel alive, but its all for nothingggg... because I'm dead inside...
Oh just kill me now
Just kill me now...
Because
I'm fucking cold
I'm fucking cold inside...
Oh just leave me aside...
Just leave me to die...
Because I just let you down
Because I'm fucking cold inside

My death
By fire
By water
Life or death
When i draw my last breath
Everyone will know
Know me
For who i am
They will see my deeds
Deeds that needed be done
By water
Life or death
When i draw my last breath
Everyone will know
Know me
For who i am
They will see my deeds
Deeds that needed be done

The breath of death
This is goodbey
Today you die
I smell it
The stail breath
Of it
Death
A life not worth living
A life not worth ending
Overcome your death
Push through
It's rough today
Tomorrow is hell but death is unknown
Pain in one life or the next or happiness
Do what you must to keep going
Today you die
I smell it
The stail breath
Of it
Death
A life not worth living
A life not worth ending
Overcome your death
Push through
It's rough today
Tomorrow is hell but death is unknown
Pain in one life or the next or happiness
Do what you must to keep going

Pure
A rose to which none other flower can compare
The rose is You miss
Through frost it struggles
Through drought it troubles
Yet come spring a fragrant delight as it unfolds it's beautiful light
Like an ember it sets the valley ablaze
Across hills and highlands
Through the darkness of night it always remains the light
The rose is You miss
Through frost it struggles
Through drought it troubles
Yet come spring a fragrant delight as it unfolds it's beautiful light
Like an ember it sets the valley ablaze
Across hills and highlands
Through the darkness of night it always remains the light
