Tyranny

Too sad to cry, betrayed I lay; lost...

In a colorless place, trapped between darkness and light.

Welcoming the tide of fall...

Still, I long for the conjuration of daring springs...

Sickness surrounds me...

While seeking guidance to hell.

With nails, made of dirt...

I am scratching, injuring death.

As I am death's heir apparent.

And survival is my weakest instinct...

Why did you punish the heart that loved you?

Were you worth the blood that I shed?

We broke and fell... as one.

To me you're now...

A past friend, and a respected enemy...

Carry me away, and into tyranny...

Where I will let defeat dim their eyes

While victory shines mine...

My will be done, theirs; be gone!

Feeling indifferent while awaiting the lost twilight...

As the sun forever sets over my soul...

Tempted and blessed... by hatred...

...Forever enraged

Detonate a star...

Darkness unites us, and light tears us apart

Forever indebted...to winter...
