These raised voices I've heard far to much
Deafening screams forces me to reject your touch
False allegations that I'm the one to blame
False intentions that trigger off my pain
...

My worst enemy
My closest friend
You claim forgiveness
Then seek out revenge
...

Have you forgotten who you are
Followed the wrong path
Somehow been misguided
Seems everyone has the last laugh
...

There is something unique about the rain
Draws the mind into a state of reflection
It soothes the pain
...

You're a memory I could never erase
A picture I was never brave enough to deface

You are the last person on my mind before I sleep
...

I will carry you until my arms ache
I will carry you until my back breaks

I will carry you until my feet are raw
...

Mom always said only as far as your knee
No deeper you hear me?
We don't want you getting washed out to sea
...

I know it hurts
Your mind has been misled
Tears you cry
When all your prayers have been left unread
...

Clenching my fist
Looking into your eyes
Feeling this burning hate begin to rise
...

I'd give my last breath
To breathe life into your broken heart
I would light a thousand candles to protect you from the dark
...

Your eyes tell no lies
You believe the next drink will soften the blow
Carry you off to a place where tears do not flow

Your confidence grows
...

A mother in distress
A broken heart
I questioned my faith
To god I must confess
...

The game has began
Now roll the dice
Take your turn
I don’t need any advice
...

Is this how it feels when the heart breaks?
Aching in your chest
Begging to fix all the mistakes
...

I can’t look into your eyes
You may see through me
See through all the lies
...

Here is my heart
Crush it in your hands
Make it bleed
Prove to me the world is full of greed
...

So many promises turned into lies
So many mistakes ending in goodbye's

So many dreams I could never achieve
...

My heart is so heavy from carrying your sadness inside
I could place it down at any given time
I wont let go, not until all your tears have dried
...

Sitting here thinking of you
I wonder where you are now
Are angels holding you in their arms
Protecting you from all the evilness this world holds
...

Your presences brings fear into my life
I am the one without a voice
Laughter impales my body
I crumble beneath taunting words of your choice
...
