Why do I try
When all I do is fail
It's a bitter thing
which taste so stale

Unlike these tears
Which fall in a salty haste
I can't seem to keep up here
As everything I do is at a unacceptable pace

Why am I giving a thought
when each one crash lands
I'm everything perfect is not
And I'm being crushed beneath expectations hands

Forgive me love
when I tear your heart out of your chest
Please love forgive me
I do it for the best

Don't cry for me
I'm a long way from being saved
And anyone close to me
Won't leave unscathed

I bleed the venom
That my actions speak
But inside my heart is frozen
Vulnerable and weak

I crumble beneath your eyes
So full of things I won't say
I sit filling the gaping void
Wishing this agony away

I can't love anyone
I can't even love myself
I want so bad to love you though
But wishes aren't granted in hell.

Storms heart lays not in destruction
But at the point of despair it tears it down
To become whole
And rebuild our already shattered lives
Storms heart acts not in hate
But in pain of our cries of despair
The storm cries with us
Feels our pain
The roaring winds are our echoed screams
The pouring rain is our tears
The raging thunder is our anger
The twisting coiling winds
Colliding with the earth
Is our sorrow our love, our hate,
The storms heart is our heart
Together we destroy
We rebuild
Together we are a raging storm

May the words be spoken,
but promises never broken
May our peace and love remain in our hearts
and never leave and never part
blessed be the ones who care
but are neither here and never there

I see it passing by
within a glances time
I wonder how many chances
I'll get at this same thing.

Like a fog in the window pane
It's blocking my view of the sun
I keep on thinking that the next night
I'll simply give up and be done,

I fight for things that I believe are right
but who knows whats right anymore?
I keep trying to find this light
but it seems the lights dimmed
like a bulb in the morgue,

I feel like a sinking ship
will I ever reach the bottom of the sea?
Or will I just keep sinking deeper
in my broken adolescent dreams?

I'm finding that life is harder than it looks
and that every step I take it brings me farther from the truth
and I keep on searching
for I have curiosity achieved by only a youth,

But my outlook is no longer innocent
like a child who has not seen
I've seen the world at it's worst
and I understand what it means,

I just wish I knew the way
out of this godforsaken maze
it seems I've lost my mind
in this thought induced craze.

He was a majesty in a world unjust
A place full of death and mistrust
He breathed fire, and his heart was of magic
Gifted to a mortal, who died a death so tragic.

Silent lies the child upon the cobblestone
His beating heart no longer his own
But darkness, betrayal and evil awaited
For the boy to grow and become acquainted.

A man of honor rode up upon his black stead
Sword in one hand the other filled by a bottle of mead
Beside him rode a half-wit poet
Who was a knight himself but didn't know it.

They watched as the kingdom grew corrupt
Lead by a king who should have never grew up
For the heart that beat beneath his breast
Did not belong to his heaving chest.

And with courage from a poor man who had lost his sight
They gathered their forces with a boast of might
And charged at the castle with a horrific roar
To find that courage there, existed no more.

That night they rode away for they were beat
And many discouraged hung their heads in defeat
But just along the brim of the moon
Came a hovering shadow not a minute to soon.

The scaled majesty with the wings of the night
A beast hidden from mankinds sight
Inside his chest beat half a heart
For the other beat miles apart.

In the chest of a coward that had lived in vain
A man that had suffered many in pain
The dragon held up his wings in the cold nights air
And roared "slay me know before he gets here."

But that noble knight felt a guilt like no other
For that dragon he must slay was like a brother
Although he loathed the beast once when his head was not right
He did not loath the creature that dreadful night.

But with the seconds counting down the beast yelled it again
And this time he swung the sword into the chest of his friend
With a terrible screech it fell to the ground
And was parted by the tears of everyone around.

That dragon now belongs to the stars that watch over the dark
And if you look closely you'll see the dragons spark
It was a bravery that saved a village that was broken apart
Because there is no greater strength than a brave dragons heart.

You get inside my blood stream
turning my veins to black
You make me yell, kick and scream
because you always turn your back
on me

I breathe you in
to feel you again
Underneath my skin
You feel like poison

You haunt me while dreaming
I can't keep track
On how many times I've woken up screaming
But then fall asleep hoping to get you back
because

I breathe you in
to feel you again
Underneath my skin
You feel like poison

But I don't want to be saved
