Just accept what I say
When I tell you I’m fine
I’m scared what you’d think
If you knew I’d crossed the line

You were clear from the start
You weren’t in for keeps
But the longer you’re with me
I can’t help how my heart beats

I’ve never really known love
I’d mainly kept to myself
You were the first
To drag me from my shell

What scares me more than anything
Is what will happen when you’re gone
How do I find someone who wants me
How can I possibly hope to move on

This must be a joke
I know you can’t be serious
You left me for her?
You must be delirious

I’ve heard of guys making downgrades
But ****, this is unreal
How did you go from me to her
Did you lose out on a deal?

I guess *** is just that powerful
To make you settle for that beast
I’m sorry I wouldn’t compromise my morals
Good luck with what you’ve leased

There are forces in existence
That keep the universe in balance
Love and Hate, Life and Death
Each charged with their own challenge

It can sometimes be difficult
To understand the flow of power
But once you do it’s crystal clear
Without one, we wouldn’t last an hour

The negative can seem overpowering
But keep this in mind
When things are bad, they’re bound to get better
It’s the way *the world’s designed

When man plays God
We see where that leads
Down a dark winding path
To a place light recedes

The power of life and death
Is one all too often abused
By those who’d control the world
Leaving us dazed and confused

Let’s take this to a new level
One most would rather ignore
What about the criminals
We’ve sent to Satan’s door

Did we have the right to do such
Although it bettered mankind
Are we no better than them now
Caught in this killer’s state of mind

Now let’s bring in genetics
It’s incredible how far science has come
But to create life in a lab
Is the utmost sin, considered by some

Now consider a mother
With her child still within
Is it our place to pass judgement
Should she choose to abort what could've been

How can we dare to judge
Or think we know better
That our opinions are law
And apply to the world forever

When man plays God
No good can come forth
Only violence and bloodshed
And warfare on Earth

Just live with me in the moment
For once don’t think of the future
Or what tomorrow will bring
Let go of your inhibitions
And let your desires take wing

I know you better than myself
I know you’ll work your fingers to the bone
But life is far too short
So let it go and just relax
Don’t make me a last resort

Come with me and take my hand
I’ll show you things you’ve long forgotten
Things we discovered together
When the world was far more simplier
And every second was a new adventure

The point I’m trying to make
Is you’re letting life pass you bye
And though I love you with all my heart
I can’t take living with a zombie
So make a choice, don’t let this tear us apart

Are you up to the challenge of being my savior?
Can you muster up what it takes to bring me home?
Is my faith in you well spent ?
Or am I destined to wander, lost and alone

I don’t need your excuses
Nor do I crave your well meant intent
What I require is certainty
I may one day escape this torment

I need a hero to save me
Because this time I can’t save myself
I need that knight in shining armour
Because how can you survive when the enemy is yourself?

To be honest I was desperate for love
So when you came along I gave thanks to the gods above
But what once filled my thoughts with joy to while away the hours
Has now turned my heart into something twisted and sour
