Broken dreams and broken lives
Lay onto the path to death
Even if I close my eyes
I can feel them on my breath
Everything else seems unreal
Only pen and paper reign
Might weapon forged in steel
Mighty shield to fight the pain
And the journey doesn't end
Keep on fighting till it's dark
On my search for ways to mend
I have torn my world apart
Caterpillar and then moth
I still don't know how to fly
Trough the knowledge that I've sought
I have only learned to die
Should I keep looking for love
Like so many before me?
Should I open up my bed?
Is that what will set me free?
I have not done it before
Like I thought was right to do
Do I chose the right to whore
And I open into you?
Chasing dreams that are not mine
I've met purpose in my life
And before a glass of wine
I'll admit to be your wife
I am here where I was
Rediscovering the rules
I'm the effect to my cause
Turning people into wolves
Choices I have made before
Still remain as broken glass
Taking off the shoes I wore
I might put them in my past
Scour mountains for their rocks
As I'm carrying my own
Turning all of them to blocks
For the walls
My breath fogs up the world
I only see the dangers
The darkness is too cold
I'm not one of the changers
I'm always left behind
Because my soul is dragging
Is this the deal that's signed?
If so, I'm starting gagging
Mankind rejects my song
You are the drug I'm using
I won the surname Strong
It feels so much like losing
I need what I fear most
My dreams have left my pillow
Wishing I could be lost
I am a weeping willoww
Fire breathing from within
I have left the world alone
Had my thoughts covered in sin
And my righteousness is gone
Words come out as thorny spines
Breaking skin and poking blood
By avoiding living landmines
I have built my house in mud
And now I'll let you flood, river of hatred
And you may never know what was the truth
There's nothing here to give birth to freedom
I'm left with only guilt of wasted youth
And maybe I will hide under the covers
Or even better, underneath the bed
And maybe we'll stop staring at each other
And blurt out all the things that must be said
And how I wish that you could flow trough out me
And drown the residue of things I've done,
The darker part of my imagination,
The monster that I think I have become
Burn me up inside your fire
I'm the darkness you're the flame
If we fall inside each other
I will be the one to blame
Cast your spell of warmth upon me
I'll give hatred in return
If you choose to find your freedom
I will be the one to burn
The red of your breath has got me all tangled up
I'm trying so hard to discover all the roads on your map
My dream has succumbed under the heat of your touch
Maybe it's time to forget that the old wounds hurt so much
Because of you I now hold time in the palm of my hand
And maybe in return the broken circle will help you mend
So just keep reshaping worlds to your desire
And I'll try keeping the future from catching fire
Can I call you dancing wolf? 'cause that's how you howl trough my mind…
Though I have to admit I have never seen one of your kind…
I must say that I am intrigued by the fire you breathe
And even though I might regret it I am curious as where and how you feed
The difficulty of this situation lies in the fact
That my mind and body have not reached an agreement on how to react
There is no doubt that your eyes burn me every time they pass by
And every cell of my body trembles when you let out your war cry
Still I find myself revolving around you
Like if I would spin enough times I would see inside the cobalt blue
Even my ear
