| Trust, Trust... Is An easy bridge to crumble to break burn shatter with the simplicity of a single lie no matter how much warning you give of such an attack or the possibility of an attack upon that bridge you will burn it. You will destroy it easily with a single lie and if you are really good you might even get close walk across that bridge of trust to another, you may play the game play it well you may play it better and better each and every time but you will destroy that bridge each time I know I am a conqueror a warlord I have burned many bridges to many people I am a great player of a game that I no longer play it plays me it chews me up and spits me out it takes a hold of me when I least expect it and when I least want it and it runs me. Words I say hear them not put your hands to your ears beware I could be lying see me not see me not what you see may be a lie speak to me not speak not to me for there may be evil in the words we toss around do no evil be aware I am a wolf in sheep�s clothing. I am good at telling you what you want to hear I will whisper in your ear things that will make you happy and joyful but later I will break this sudden dream this mirage of a bridge that we called trust and faith and now in my later years as a warrior conqueror breaker of bridges breaker of faith I stand here alone stand here watching the world saddened by what I have done saddened by who I have become and now all I want really want is to change my ways I no longer want to be a warrior a conqueror a burner of bridges a defiler of faith I want to be honest I do not want the heart ache any more of broken promises and dreams I don�t want to see the pain in other peoples eyes any more when I am grinning g at them after I have burned their bridges I do not want the sorrow of loneliness any more I will put down my tongue of my lies I will put down the sword of my smile I will put down the lies in my eyes and I will bury the ghosts now of people I have played wrongly in a game that never should have been played, I will bury them now. You see recently I played a game with out intent without motive with out reason I burned a great bridge the best bridge of trust and faith I burned it smashed it tore it down with skill amassed with 23 years of playing this game. No more, no more I cant do it any more I cant take being alone any more I cant take the sorrow of it any more because sorrow that is all I have left in my memories is sorrow for all the wrong that I have done no apologies no amount of sorrow that I feel will every heal the wounds that I left never rebuild bridges that I have destroyed never take away memories of a champion gone awry never take away the memories of what people have always remember of me when I have left, that I was a conqueror a defiler of faith a burner of bridges so all I can say is this I will pick up my staff of honesty and my cloak of anonymity and bare no burdens of sorrow no more and I will move through life as a mortal man no longer a warrior a conqueror as a defiler of faith a burner of bridges I will change, it will take time it will take effort. But I will change |
