Beautiful Pain

To busy fighting here to see

For hatred twisted both our fates

That it could be another way;

Me the Lion, you the Snake.

I never knew the truth before

Just hate and pain and lies.

Your family was ripped from you

All killed in just one night.

Many things seem backwards now

What once was solid has been torn

And the world will never stop to see

The freezing Lion, the Serpent warm.

The world is in but shades of gray

And the mirror has two faces.

Yet never will we meet again

No matter what the place is.

You see what they will never know

My beaten soul that never flew.

Destined not to die you'll live, know peace

and hold my Serpent heart there too.
