Last night your hate ripped into my heart
Your word bleeding around me
Telling me over and over I'm useless.
And I know I deserve it,
I know I'm not what you wanted to see,
Not what you wanted me to be,
Not what I can be,
Not the me that isn't me this is the me you want me to be.
I can't help where my heart is,
I can't help that you cried
You saw me through new eyes,
Those eyes filled with prejudice,
Those eyes filled with hate,
But I'm still the same person
You met at that gate.
Planting flowers out of love,
Tending to your demons,
Making me wonder why you loved demons,
But you couldn't love me.
And your eyes were swollen from crying,
While my soul burned from the lies,
Consuming me all together in that lovely blue flame,
I know you can't bear to say my name
Anymore
Because the night is full of enemies
And you don't know which are your friends
That you thought would be behind you this entire time holding you up giving you strength
Can I say I'm talking about
You
Anymore?
I was left abandoned,
Bleeding and broken
And looking back on that day I can't help but to feel empty
Like my life was stolen away
Because you took it
And stabbed my heart with your gaze
That one gaze which was all I needed to know
That the world had changed
And your eyes became clouded
While my lies became clean.
Its no wonder why you call me demon,
My hands are stained with the blood of my heritage,
My head adorned with this crown of flames,
I'm your worst nightmare,
Your own trembling fists
Fighting my shadow,
But only my shadow.
You're scared of my shadow…
Did you know it's not me
Did you know that I'm up here,
Not down the trenches with those empty titles that burned into the eart.
Look into my eyes,
Tell me you see the ocean,
Tell me you can breathe the sky,
Tell me tell me you can touch the fire and drink the flames,
Tell me you know I won't hurt you,
Tell me that I'm alive!
With the world against,
I can't help but slip away,
Give me you bruised lips,
Let them whisper my prayers,
Because God doesn't want to hear
From someone like me.
Give me a life that's worth something,
Give me a tear that's worth shedding,
A song that's worth singing,
A sword that's worth drawing,
For the cause that has somehow gotten lost,
Or maybe the reasons have just been changed because of
You
In my life.
Grant me forgiveness,
Let it come from a star so far away it's already blown across a glaxay,
Paving a new way for thinking,
And drifting away
Like the tears
We shed for each death
Dropping down on my flames
To quench their hate.
I'm still the person I was,
When we first met.
The sky is still open,
Reflecting my eyes,
As my breath slows,
And my eyes close,
And only God knows,
How much
I miss
You.
Tell me you can't kiss my finger tips
And only taste ashes
Because my identity has been
Burned away
By those flames of blue sorrow
That my heart beat the boy who
Called me a Demon
So he wouldn't see me
Cry.
And the world screams of Demons
But forgets about love.
My father told me Demons are
Born from our hearts.
And I couldn't stop lying
Because of your eyes,
Those eyes filled with
Laughter
Those eyes filled with
Light.
I am still the same person,
I was when we met.
Just know that
I'm sorry.
And give me
One
Last
Chance.
