trivial eyes, significant lies, peering through the cracks.
as perfidious desires, force me nigh.
like a golden emanation of temptation luring me aside
before the mistress of time tested glory.

before the volatile grip of what you once called love
constricted my thoughts, from something beautiful as she
just as tempting as the forbidden fruit of life, I sought for thee.
before the interest of life forever, fighting for thee.

In love with life beyond compare
remembering every second of life's despair
before the love you shamed, forever in vain,
condemned for vicarious animosity

I walk on water, barefoot on ice
Turn my head, and the world is burning
The bombs are coming closer
shaking society, blowing life away

In a world where people are diagnosed
when society is sick and dying

In a world where diversity is killed
when all we can handle is two sides

In a world where fiction becomes fact
when knowledge is the enemy

If only shooting holy books
could destroy the ignorance
If only burning holy buildings
would turn the roots into ash

I crave our glory days,
I was young and you were the one.
I never thought anything could be more perfect than us.
I despise destiny, I believe it made a mistake.
I'm sorry for everything I did
and everything I couldn't be for you
but not for everything I felt, I needed you
and you left me,
a thousand miles away
and empty handed.
I get it, you needed someone who could be there,
sometimes love lasts and sometimes it just doesn't.
I'll find someone like you, if it's at all possible, I will
I just wish I could hold onto those memories,
where you loved me.
I never felt so whole,
as much as I need you to be happy,
I secretly crave for everything you have to fall apart,
so I can pick up the pieces.
don't hate me,
I'll be there soon.

It’s hard to find words to describe those moments
Sitting outside and remembering the past
People you loved, times you shared, memories you’ve made
All things that will never come again and remembered only by you
Leaves falling on a fall day, with someone you once loved
Late nights with friends, doing things you shouldn’t have
All these thoughts, and events shaped by your memory
And music, sounds of laughter and crying, soundtrack to the mind
But, each day is a new day to make new memories
Hold those dear to you close, and don’t dwell on the past
Remember that each second is a path to the future
And have fun living it.
