Sacrifice

If you want forget the guilt
If you want forget the pain
Hear me out, and I’ll explain
If you want to rise above
Forget about love
There’s no time to go back,
Back from where you’ve come
So open your eyes, and look into the barrel of the gun
What they say doesn’t matter
What they do isn’t fair
Hear my voice, believe me they don’t care
Because true sacrifice
Isn’t a crime
Cause sometimes, when you’ve lost you’ve won
So open your eyes, and look into the barrel of the gun

Heroine

I am the champion
Of everything right
Midnight and silence
Passion and light

I will stay by your side
Through this endless night
Waiting for the dawn
Knowing I must fight

Who do you dream of?
My handsome prince
If I chase your demons away
Will you accept my dark kiss?

I will stay by your side
Through the endless night
Waiting for the dawn
Knowing I will fight

If I am defeated
Everything is gone
When they say it will be over
They have to be wrong

Alone now, I am the one
I had it all
It hangs in the balance
I refuse to fall

Pride 1

You walked off
Feeling like you’d done your duty
Making your point
With every footstep that you took
In the opposite direction
When someone loves another person
They should do this
And, if it doesn’t burn
It isn’t real
Because if you cut as deep as you wanted to
It would never heal
You walked off
Carrying your redemption
Carrying your pride
Carrying my heart
But you were the one
Who was empty inside

Alarm Clock (so evil)

The digital pause before a wake up call
Exact timing
Shaping a moment
Pre-defined
Surround Sound
Red characters
Moving hands
A pause and a button
Assuming sleep
Waiting for the right time

Guilt 2

This heavy feeling comes again
Your hands twitch in your lap
I look everywhere
But in your eyes
Deciding if I should love you back

Over the Bars

In one breath lurched forward
Outside and over the bars I became
The last insignificant thought
Twisted in the sunlight was the moment
Planned to be forgotten
Relying on the strength of
A substance to make sure
Just to make sure
Pretty chains balled into fists
Reconciled to memories
Purely inhabited stretched
Worn so that comfort in pain
Insinuated and mistaken
For something needed, basic
Down to the cellular level
Created in the wasteland
A heart incensed, increased, inflamed
Quickly replaced to make sure
Just to make sure
Reminded by an image
A phantom, a wolf
The flock has passed between
The gulf of reminiscence
To the innocent laughter
To playtime, and fit to be tied
To make sure
Just to make sure
