Ballad--
A long time ago, there was glamour in my eyes
When I was younger, I could see through starless night-
My dreams were full of wishes, wants and women
And now my days are full of loneliness,
Wasting away at my own thoughtless indiscretions.
I sit through every night, fighting off my deepest fright;
The single thought of thine own enemy
Strikes me through the heart,
Every day I live in complete and utter loneliness
And for this, my heart shall never feel again.
There was a girl once, that held me up so high
She used to love me, used to care,
Until that fateful day she came and said goodbye-
I don’t know if it was me, I know it wasn’t fair,
But I couldn’t help but blame her,
With my deepest hatred shared.
If you were to ask, a boy so sweet
What could be, a better treat;
Than to hold my love again once more
To keep her, hold her, and to adore-
I believe that in my wildest dreams
All the world would tumble at the seams.
I have found my own worst enemy,
Deep within my soul, all my feelings
Good and bad, in a flash I sold-
And now I feel nothing, but the numbness
That drives my every move,
And I feel as if the world is standing
Just out of my relentless snatching-
And if God was so high above,
Then even his purity, even his love,
Could not save me from this woe,
As I know that even in my dreams
My loneliness catches me still
And with each breath, there comes a chill-
The soft realization, the endless temptation,
To begin a new, and breathe new life-
And so I breathe it, with this knife,
So please god, hear me out,
Here me scream, and hear me shout
Tell me what this is all about!
Our else, I'll cut my own heart OUT!
