Gone
you don't know me,
not at all,
you never even tried,
to see truth behind the mask,
to see the me inside.
because you never took the time,
now you'll never know,
the me who fights the fight each day,
the me who's never told.
never told the way I feel,
or even what I see,
the fact is, no matter what you say
you never really noticed me,
the days slip by so slowly,
every minute an hour long,
the truth is that I seem to be here,
'Cause no one noticed that I'm gone.

The Shield
hidden behind the same shield,
iron walls never mistaken,
where emotions cease to yield,
and my heart was silently breaking.
Never before had the walls come down,
My defense had never cracked,
But you came through and showed me,
what my heart for so long lacked.
So down came the sheild I knew so well,
It was a risk that was worth taking,
I left my silent hell,
for a love thats never fading.

Untitled
silent tears, on rose cheeked face,
blue eyes grow dim and shallow.
the time has come to leave this place,
but to where she does not know.
or how she'll leave, she knows not yet,
or even if she can.
the hour glass that once showed light,
is filling up with sand.
Her trembling hand is hard to see,
in the darkness of the night,
the feel of the metal in her hand,
will end her darkened plight.

Your Shadow
Expectations never met,
Dreams that belong to you,
You expect me to not be upset,
To always follow through.
No one has noticed that I'm not you,
That I'm different in many ways,
I have my goals and life to do,
Not cut from the same pattern lace.
But no one understands that,
To me its much too sad though,,
'Cause no matter what I do,
I'll be living in your shadow.

The Voice Of Protest
Stepping lightly through the forest
among the leaves and twine.
two lovers make a solomn vow
beneath a star lit sky,
to be together forever,
no matter what may come,
and that nothing could ever break,
their peaceful, undying love
but from afar, those who watch,
they never did agree,
that those two should be together,
in their loving peace.
and so the rumors start to rise,
the voice spreading further than one could see,
speaking of what they think is wrong
and what they feel should never be.
The two lovers paid the voice no heed
for they knew that it was wrong,
but the voice of protest had planted its seed
and sang its hateful song.
The voice grew stronger everyday,
its cries of protest spread far and wide,
which is whythe lovers lie there now,
its why they chose to die.
so in the end, to those alive,
it seemed that they had won,
that they had stamped the evil out,
and that what was wrong was done.
and the two who died to escape the words
know better than many think or say,
for in the heaven that they know,
they're together still today.

Good Guys Finish Last
We play by the rules,
in life and love,
never daring to lie or cheat,
but in the end, no mattter what,
its us who end up beat.
We're not sure why,
but so it seems,
the bad guys always succeed
maybe if we broke the rules,
we'd end up with what we need.
Much as I've tried, i just can't bring
myself to do whats wrong,
and even if i could,
i wouldn't be able to live it for long.
So whats done is done,
its in the past,
because no matter what,
we'll finish last

I Choose To Fall
I choose to fall, and risk the pain
for a chance at happiness.
To see the truth in everything,
To live my life in bliss.
I choose the way to live my life,
and be the way i am,
to laugh and cry, when i want
and proceed without a plan.
So i make this final statement,
for you, but me above all
for in this world of pain and lies,
I choose, and therefore fall.

Deception
I seem to hurt a little more,
with every single day,
my heart is broken beyond repair,
I couldn't keep the hurt at bay.
At nigh i cry, there is no hope,
or chance for happiness.
I spend my time trying to get along,
and trying to forget.
I can't seeem to get you off my mind,
no matter how i try,
my soul seems dark with pain and hurt,
and all i do is sigh.
And so i sit and think about,
all we could have shared,
when all along the truth was,
that you never really cared.
