Renew

Reach out to the past,
try to fix this broken thing.
We knew it couldn't last;
cry out, screaming, let it ring.
There was no way out,
but now we're out,
with nowhere to go.

Walk through the only open door I see,
close it behind you, only dark left here for me.
No one to hold a light, bright by my side,
This dark is proof of all your lies.
Hold my hand.
Let me know it will be..
ALRIGHT.
Shed your tears for me at the end of the fight.

You can't bring me back from this.
No hope, not even in your kiss.
These broken chains still manage to bind,
here's to hoping they lock around my mind.

I cannot let this sickness keep bleeding through,
the last person I want to have this is you.
And though this bile comes from your lips,
I'm the one who's stuck in it, the one who slips.

One step from the chair to freedom,
short drop, sudden stop. We are LEGION.


Alone.

One More Gone

Ive lost so many people lately,
I start to wonder if i'm not the one who is lost.
My voice breaks, heart shatters,
the last bits of me fallen in tatters.
There is no picking up these pieces,
there is no love to save me from this.
Always watched, what is this smile?
Who does it belong to? Not me.

Like Trent said:
I can't remember how this got started,
but I can tell you exactly how it will end.
