I dance for the love

I dance even when I feel pain
I dance knowing there's something to gain
...

I'm lost in the dark
I'm only left with a spark
Planning to stay together from the start
But we quickly fell apart
...

My new life has begun
Listening to a silent gun
That has left me alone
For I have grown
...

The dark takes me again
Looking at the end of a gun

Making my life more scary
...

My heart is deceitful to the body
And desperately wicked to the body
Taking me a lifetime to discover the truth
Not knowing the definition of the word “truth”
...

A girl filled with so much fear
Afraid for someone to get near
‘Cause she’s afraid of hurting someone
Even though she’s always that someone
...

You have a brain full of wisdom
As powerful as the sun
Tender as watching the sunrise
Wondering if you can believe your eyes
...

Life without you
Has made the sky look bluer
The times I've spent with you
Has made the sun look cooler
...

The sun falls to the ground
With no friends standing around
The tears run for safety
While there's a screaming baby
...

The last place on earth
Finding myself waking up on the beach
I’ve learned and now I have to teach
Wondering if it was a dream
...

You've been told my secret

Not from the words of my lips
I wanted to keep it
...

Walking through the silent night
Watching you as my light
Causing a reaction - drawn'd towards you
Trying to make everything the truth
...

I thought we were always meant to be
For you completed me
Just because I loved you
Doesn't mean you love me, too
...

Found myself hidden away
With not a word to say
Watching you love someone else
As I sit back on the shelf
...

Looking at the sun she can't touch
Not knowing how it hurts her so much

Temptation blocks his vision to see
...

People want me to be the best
Just like the rest
They don’t know how I feel
Or what’s the real deal
...

Fear is love
It’s just like a black dove
You would have no chance stumbling across one
All alone you’ll be trying to find one
...

A recreation of mistakes
Something has taken my place
I can hear everything going on around me
I feel my mind screaming please
...

Believing in my destiny
And that there’s something special for me
As I release my arrow
For he has taken his last bow
...

The wind of oppression in each other
Only fan the fire of resistance in each other
When I consider the hardships that some others must face
My troubles seem foolish to face
...
