Her Last Christmas.
I really wish there was another way
I don't feel like waking up on Boxing Day
I always dread the beauty of Christmas
Surrounded by love but it doesn't feel like "us"
I feel alone
I have no one to call my own
Not even a mother to share my love
Perhaps soon you can mourn and release a dove
I'm desperate for a pill
I need to end it all, I have no will
Twas the end, it's Christmas Night
Their little soldier can no longer fight
She found her bottle of wine
Perhaps they'll find her the next day at nine
It's boxing day after all...

The Punished Victim.
I'm the girl who was forced to be alone
I have no one but myself, I am on my own
I can never tell them who I am
I have the armor of a lion, but the inside of a lamb
Someone took my soul
I'll always feel empty, I'll never be whole
It's always someone you trust
That uses you and attacks you with lust
You suffocated my innocence
I couldn't stop you, I had no defence
The man I love does not know
Because he could let me go
I will forever be damaged
I'll never be fine, I can no longer manage
I've seen them whisper
The hatred of the...

The Flower In The Storm,
I gave everything for you
I changed my beliefs, my priorities, my look
I would never be who you want me to
You drained me...It was everything you took
You claim to be my friends, my allies
That have taken everything away from me
You claim to speak the truth but it was nothing but lies
You didn't hear me crying, screaming, my plea
I hid the pain by slashing my hips
I met someone who made my heart weak
But the pain became excruciating at the lips
Because finally someone heard me speak
Someone listened to my pain
and it hurt them too...

I can't be your hero...
I can't help you, I can't be your hero.
Sooner or later you'll see me go
Every night a different story
I can't take this anymore my wrists are gory
You don't see the pain I have suffered
It's hard to read after these tears, it's all so blurred
Every time you're sad it's me you call
To let it all out to whine, to ball
There is always someone I'm expected to save
I can't save you when I'm heading for my grave
I have my own issues, I cannot escape
I'm clawing for an exit, there's nothing left to scrape
You forgot to ask "How are you?"...

I only wanted to love you...
I remember that day like my favourite song,
I found who I wanted, The One....
What took you so long?
Every day you'd hold me in your big arms
I should have heard the sirens, I ignored the alarms
I was blinded by your beautiful blue eyes
They filled me with passion, desire, evil, toxicity...
Forbidden from the skies...
You could hurt me, hit me, throw me,
You would never stop, so aroused by my plea.
I would wish upon a star that one day I would be yours
Because just a smile would stop these inner wars
Our romance is like something I read in a...

This Pain Addiction Called Love.
The moment I saw you, I knew...
I could see our future and that you felt it too,
You were charismatic, indulgent, passionate, eccentric.
The moment our eyes connected it was more than a spark
it was electric,
All that electric running through my body
crucifying my veins,
A moment with you fills me with melancholy
like the atmosphere after it rains,
Yet a moment without you leaves the same red stain
from my lips over my wrists,
Please hold my hand one last time
or pull me from this pit I'm unable to climb
I'm yours til death do us part...

Fantasy Man.
The darker it becomes
the more I begin to feel,
Every dark thought possible
becomes[font=Times New Roman] my nightly highlight reel,
I just want to be held by my hand or in your arms,
You don't even have a name,
But you have left me with all these scars...
I want it reckless, dangerous...Racing in stolen cars
I need you to want me...
So I can feel something, so I can feel alive,
It doesn't matter who you are,
Make me feel loved, lets just drive.
Hold me close in the empty cemetery?
You're going to disappear,
But you'll find me here...
