| My Immortality I stand now on the edge of sanity, Pondering what has become of me. Before me, I watch my last sunrise, Sorrow grips me as I await my mortal demise Look at what you�ve done to me, You�ve taken away my humanity, Now there�s nothing left here for me, But to rot in my immortality. (Chorus) This is my immortality, My never ending calamity. All of this, my hate, my pain, All the things that drive me insane, It�s that which I cannot face, The morbid fear that you embrace, This is not the life for me, so take it away. You took me lovingly into your arms, As if to shield me from other-worldly harms, But should have known it wasn�t your intent; You�ve leeched my life to it�s full extent. I feel the fangs of seduction sinking deep within, The blood flows silently from punctured skin. And I�m left with nothing but remorse, The curse of the Damned beginning it�s course. (Chorus) Now, look at what�s become of me, Staggering blindly through my vampiric infancy, And against my will I reach for you still yet, Searching for shelter, but finding only neglect. Fallen beyond arm�s reach, Hearing nothing but shattered speech, Lost in this dream from which I can�t awaken, Nothing left for I am The Forsaken. (Chorus) |
| There is Love And the world stands still For the people we kill, Not a sound as the sky falls down, Just take a good look around. The stars and the moon all fall around me, And yet, I cling to this world so desperately. Can you hear the Angels, they�re crying, Tears spilt for a world that�s dying. But still, right here I stand, Never losing hold of your hand. And while the sky falls down We choose to hang around, Pay no mind to the chaos that surrounds, For there is still love to be found. There is love, there is love, Cast down from above, The love for you, the love for me. There�s much more to life than you can see. It�s how I�m living from day to day, Living on a love that will save us always. And all people that turn their backs, It�s passion for life that they lack, Just too scared, or so it seems, To be one who dares to dream. From tear-stained eyes, I have seen Your arms wrapped tightly around me; To each other we will always be bound So long as there is still love to be found. |
| My Last Breath And here I find myself again, I�m alive, but just barely. And here, it�s raining once again, But with no place to go, I�m in no hurry. Cold stones that compliment the heart, It�s all I�ve left to see. The things that keep us apart, They linger all around me. And here, I�m still pretending. No, I�m not simply okay, I�ve wounds that still need mending. All that�s left of yesterday, How they still remain. Oh how I bleed, Crimson tears that flow from puckered veins, Self-pity�s taken over me. I know you hear me, I can taste your tears, But no man is doomed, Don�t worry yourself over all my childish fears, This I must beg of you. I know I�m not sleeping, But it�ll be alright, I�m still breathing. And as long as you still hold me tight, I�ll never let go. I need you now, maybe more than ever, Need help to stand, need room to grow, And I need your love to makes things better, But you�re no where to be seen , No where in sight, So I block out the obscene By squeezing my eyes shut tight. And here, I wait, Barely avoiding Death, The longer I wait, the more I strain, Holding on to my last breath. |
| Romeo & Juliet Everyone has their own fire, Everyone has a mind of their own. Holding onto their deepest desire, It shows when you�re all alone. All the time spent grasping what isn�t real, All the time that�s wasted for you, Won�t apologize for the way I feel, 'Cause I don�t know what you want me to do. Now, tell me what it is you want with me? It�s a real tragedy When I can�t be what you want me to be. Yeah, it�s a real tragedy That you refuse to see that which I can see. And it�s become a real life tragedy When nothing is as it seems. We�re nothing but puppets on a string, Being controlled by the one behind the scenes. All the time spent holding onto you, All the time that steadily slips away, But still I see nothing more I can do, This is how I�m living from day to day. Now, tell me how I can be set free. It�s a real tragedy When I can�t be who I want to be. Yeah, it�s a real tragedy Being tied down to someone like me. Wishing and hoping and wanting it to be you who is in control. Wishing and hoping and wanting you. Wishing and hoping and wanting you to save my soul. Wishing and hoping and wanting this from you. |
