Sever

Forsaken,
He walks with me tonight
Fogotten for a time,
But never denied

He takes me away to darkness,
Chilling voices make me nervous
I want to be free
From the dark side of me

Hatred, once thought conquered whole
Rises again, beyond my control
All the while I reach for salvation
Liberation from his domination
Forever to be condemned
This is not who I am

(Free me)
I don't want this anymore
I just want to be left alone
(Hear me)
I scream away all my tears
Unnoticed all these years
(Feel me)
My eyes are opened wide
Couldn't close them if I tried
(Sever me)
From the pain I feel inside
So I can live again

Desolated,
I lie here tonight
Praying for intervention
Before both sides collide
So far I've seen victory
But for how long is unknown to me
I'll keep fighting on
Until the shadow is gone

(Free me)
I don't want this anymore
I just want to be left alone
(Hear me)
I scream away all my tears
Unnoticed all these years
(Feel me)
My eyes are opened wide
Couldn't close them if I tried
(Sever me)
From the "Me" that's inside
So I can love myself again

The mirror shows me reality's gaze
My soul was forcibly torn in twain
Trapped forever in this cage
Specially made for me

He's seen everything I've seen
He's been everywhere I've been
He is everything I fear
But he is and always will be-- part of me
