Silhouette of a broken man
"Oh you, can you hear the wind blow.
the rain, dripping down the window.
the candle, as it casts a faint glow"
The walls, the speak of a man.
a blurred visage, it had a name.
Now you're insane
I look, look on to the heavens.
My prayers, will the ever be heard.
The light that breaks in the sky...
is one that break in your heart.
Crack of lightning, haunted by the memories.
The flames, now it's gone . I'm in the dark.
The pain, maybe it'd always been this way.
I had been blind. Blinded by you. Now I can see.
So, now I live in agony.
The floor is where I dwell and writhe.
The sky-oh so bruised, the end is nigh.
"I can see, see you through my mind's eye.
this song, let it be your lullaby.
so sleep and lay your weary head to rest.
close your eyes and pray to die.
I'll be by your side. I'll be the one to carry you to paradise.
the love you can't receive.
I'll give to you.
Just carry me unto your very heart.
and i'll be the one that'll absolve.
follow my voice even if you don't yet recognize.
and for you i'll create a paradise"
Are you God? Your words they heal me?
Give me a sign. Can you really see me?
Tell me how, how to escape.
"Oh, dear child just follow my light.
let us leave this realm behind."
So now, at the tunnel's end.
I see light, a faint glow.
I run, run towards my salvation.
Now i'm saved, saved from damnation.
This world was ever so corrupted
Alas, I bid goodbye. Never to look back.
But wait, not all was as it seemed.
it was you all along. it was your master plan.
The light. The exit from this hell...
was just you shinning a flashlight in my eyes.
I see only what you want me to.
But why do you toy with me like this?
Am I a puppet to you?
Well, at least I have a master.
At least you enjoy this twisted game.
I don't know what I would be without you.
Love and hatred it all just feels the same.
"Your tears, the mean nothing to me."
"So insignificant. never even meant to be."
Please, just stay you with me.
I am alone. I am nothing without you.
I beg. beg like I always do. To you I may be nothing but to me you mean the world.
"Run, just run away from me"
"And hide, hide because they come for you"
"Can't you see, I see where your demons lie"
"You're just a pawn in my disguise"
"And don't you ever think that i'm your ally"
I guess, I mean nothing to you.
I see. I'll just be without you.
Don't mourn when i'm six feet under
because, you see, I was always alien to what it's like to be loved and to love.
And please know that you've been a bigot.
But, I do not forgive. I just forget.
Now as I look at the moon.
too late you came, but you were gone too soon.
sleepless nights, suicidal tendencies.
never the will, never the strength
so, tonight. Tonight, I will sleep in my death bed. That is where I will lay my soul to rest.
For I, I was doomed from the moment I opened my eyes.
Now I lay here, waiting for my demise.
For my own sake, I hope you'll keep your promise.
To all that I leave behind, I wish nothing upon my friends.
Just that you carry me to paradise with blood stained hands.
Because atonement I shall receive and the heavens is where I belong.
You're the one who made me realize...
I was bleeding. Bleeding all along.
