Lies

The lies that I have told you 
Can not be justified 
It doesn't matter what I say 
The truth is still a lie 

The closest thing to honesty 
Is far and few between 
The only lies forgiven 
Are the lies that went unseen 

But now it is over 
And nothing can be done 
We can hide from the truth 
But we can never run 

From the lies that came between us 
The truth will never fall 
On the lip that once believed in me 
The lies will end it all

Raven

The vile stench of ravens’ blood, the sound of death surrounds
Evil lurks upon a soul, in lines that circle round
Through cadence of this blackbird howl, the sound is one to fret
Through eyes of blackened fowl, destiny is set

Pools of blood reflect the light, of all that is to come
Ravens’ perched up on the sky, devouring the some
A bird of prey shall be the end, as blood does hit the ground
The end of life is all that’s true, for does not make a sound

Murders of the foul, they gather on up high
Peering down on to the flesh, through their blackened eyes
Pure at heart without a soul, instinctively aware
Pray has fallen to the ground, in all of its despair

The time has come, the end of some, devouring the soul
The flesh does rip, the Raven sits, upon this empty hole
For now you see, what has to be, the end of nature's wrath
Peering through, the eyes of you, this is the ravens path

Alone

As strong as the rivers 
That flow through my soul 
A heart that has become 
As dark as coal 

Is existing in a world 
Without love nor pain 
Is exaistance in a world 
filled with hate and vain 

Liveing to die 
Dieing to live 
Are rivers with tides 
That will never give 

Peace of mind to the soul 
I long to find 
In death it will come 
But may fall on eyes that are blind
