Leaving Behind...
I'll hold you high.
Above the clouds.
Embracing you.
Looking towards you.
I somehow see myself.
Drifting further.
I left it all with you.
Even if you don't understand.
Hate me if you want.
Because I'm leaving behind you.
All that's good within me
exists inside you.
Cause now I'm leaving behind,
Leaving behind you.
An unmarked grave,
a familiar tone in your heart.
Now you understand my struggle.
I was falling apart when I should have been.
Don't blame yourself.
I gave you all...
Above the clouds.
Embracing you.
Looking towards you.
I somehow see myself.
Drifting further.
I left it all with you.
Even if you don't understand.
Hate me if you want.
Because I'm leaving behind you.
All that's good within me
exists inside you.
Cause now I'm leaving behind,
Leaving behind you.
An unmarked grave,
a familiar tone in your heart.
Now you understand my struggle.
I was falling apart when I should have been.
Don't blame yourself.
I gave you all...

Look to Nothing...
How many choose to remain oblivious
to the monsters lurking in the night?
Just how many remain the same
when faced with something they don't understand?
The night approaches.
Casting its veil.
The senseless appear.
Casting its veil.
It's only the wind.
Making noises so unnatural.
So unable to grasp the fact
horror is discreet to no one.
Not to me.
The footsteps are getting closer.
There are shadows at the corners of the eyes.
Whisper "Hello..."
It's the wind.
Silence,...

Crumble Down...
How would I've known it'd make me sad?
I noticed no signs; am I so blind?
A figment of imagination.
Out of mind.
Never there.
Never stopped.
How would I've known?
How would I've known it'd make me sad?
We noticed no signs;
We noticed no signs; are we so blind?
Should I have known?
How would I've known this mistake?

A Martyr...
You asked nothing but gold.
Now you insist on taking
what's no longer there.
I've never resisted up to this point.
How can I look myself in the mirror tonight?
To better days, I've never known.
On the verge of losing what's important to me,
is it enough to make me fall back in line?
I'm done giving it up.
Risk it all, not for me.
Risk it all, a martyr.
Still you took nothing but gold.
Now the price I'm forced to pay
it's worse than I thought.
I want to stand firm but I'm shaking at the...

Another Prayer...
In moments of clarity, I recall your words.
The promises of love, forgiveness, and eternal light.
Yet here I am, wandering through the shadows.
Questioning if I ever truly belonged to the flock.
Did my sins outweigh my faith?
Did my mistakes end up sealing my fate?
I long for a sign, a whisper, a touch.
To know I'm not forsaken.
That I've not lost your love.
The silence is deafening, a void I cannot fill.
Each prayer feels unanswered.
Each plea left unheard.
While I stand at the crossroads, between hope and despair. ...

White Bird...
The ash will crumble from a delicate touch.
A fragile memory fading into the whispers of time.
I walk alone in a harsh world.
Yet each step I take echoes with resilience.
My shattered spirit is held together.
By threads of hope, woven from love.
Still my shattered spirit struggles to remain intact.
Every fracture.
I don't know the way.
The road is beginning to disappear.
In the heart of uncertainty, let courage be your compass.
The pain we felt as we let go.
Echoes in the silence, as endings and beginnings intertwined. ...

Just in...
Hey Justin, how are you doing?
I hope this reaches through.
Arriving just in time.
I miss you so much.
Remember when we laughed?
Remember all we lost?
Just in case I do.
Hey Justin, please don't go.
There's so much left to do.
I know it's a selfish request, but I don't care.
The many voices cried.
So many hands reached out.
I'm never too far...

Well...
The weight's clinging onto me.
Dragging me further past the point I'd lose myself.
Listen closely for screaming in the night.
Those echoes get swallowed by darkness.
This weight.
Burdens, grudges.
I lose sight of the appeal.
I lost what I thought would make me feel better.
It's not how I pictured it'd be.
You step away from reality.
When is the time right?
When is the time to accept?
Watch the walls close in around you.
Feel the breath escape from your grasp.
All alone, trapped within a bottle.
You refuse...

Scars Glow...
I always pretend I had a happy childhood.
Everything was perfect as I lived a nightmare.
Wishing to wake up and see the sunrise.
These days are hard in a good way.
From the moment I held him in my arms.
My scars glow.
My father was...
He won't remember you the way I do.
Even if you don't deserve it.
I think he does.
You have nothing to give.
I never expected anything.
You have nothing to give.
No longer a part of our lives.
It hurt me to learn when you died alone.
Should have I been there after all he...

Queen of Insects...
The walls of this destination are so haunting.
Rejects of society all gather here.
It isn't a prison although it may as well be.
The skittering of insects along the floor.
Agonizing screams each with unique tones.
Banging heads against the door in hopes of release.
My voice is religion everyone adheres to.
Do you want to lick my shoe's heel?
I just might allow it.
Flickering fluorescent lights all along the corridor.
A long list of numbers with names no one cares about.
Except for me.
Of course, I care.
I'm a doctor.
