Please Be Gentle

Pierced my heart with your love
Please be gentle 

dont stap it, dont drop it

i wish to keep it
i wish to feel your love 
for the rest of my life

dont make it bleed
i dont wish to feel hate

Pay For Sins

Like a howl in the night
My stomache is tellin' me something
And im tired of hurtin'.

Everytime i wake up i feel faint,
My breath smells like death.

And im going crazy 
Because its something i don't wanna face.
Because its a comfortable place.

I consume the souls, do you see me,
you can never defeat me.

Now i am the dark and we are the way
So look into your heart 
As your soul is gettin' stripped
By the likes of us.

The souls collect i keep inside me.
With their evil ways beggin' to be free.

Sometimes they rebel,
But my soul wont allow it.
But they all gotta pay
For the hate and stuff they say and do.

But this i will say i will pay for my sins too.

Do You Know Me

I scream into the darkness
Calling you name
Crying for help
But no one's there to answer me
Because
No body knows me
No body wants to
No body cares to 
To see
The pain in my eyes
The tears on my faces 
No bodys here to help me
But they're here
When i fall
Just to point and laugh!

Tell Me

Tell me, whats your mind?
Please don't lie
Its only a matter of time 
But i won't mind
I'v felt it all before
Heard it all before
Its nothing new
I will not scream
I will not cry
When you tell me, good-bye.

Free Yourself

i want to be free
but im locked in this cage
 
i want to be able to fly
but i never lean how

i want to be myself
but who is that!

When that cage door opens 
im going t fly
and if i fall i will try again.

while on this journey ofmy freedom
i will find out who stares at me
when i look upon a mirror.

What Is It About You

What is it about you,
that drives me insane?

I can't stop hearing 
your deep, warm voice
whispering into my ear.

I can't stop feeling 
your strong arms
holding me tight

When im dreaming
or when i awake
Your there 
teling me things
no one knows.

i know i my heart 
we can never be together

i want to know
what is it about you?
but every time you're near.
My heart races
and i gasp for air

Iv tried to say good bye
but you dont undestand
how hard that is

When when your the only one
who' ever got me to laugh.

Who' ever got me to cry
tears of happiness,

When your the only reason
I'm standing here, breathing.

Just a Ghost

Im just a ghost
in this world
walking down my regreats
over and over

Not a shed of tears
its all dried up
Not able to sleep
reliving my life
over and over

im just something
left alone in the shadows
No one left me here
i just dont want to leave!

I must rebemer
when everone has forgot
The lives taken away
death is all that lingers
yet i cannot leave

Dare To Dream

Everday people dare to dream of a better life........ 
I dream of a better life to the time 
i wake up til i go to bed .. 
but why do i? 
I like my life.. 
I love new ppl i meet.. 
I like to have a family even when i no i will not..
I wouldnt mind meetin that "one person" just for me, 
even when i no ill never meet him... 
I flirt but dont think i love you 
or somthing like that its just me.... 
I dont mind livein alone in my futrue 
when i no thats my fate..
but i will NEVER no what love is 
and that i think will kill me the most

My Fire

I have a fire
Its burnin inside 
Where the soul should be 
What must i do 
Im losin you
Your goin down the wrong path 
And im goin down mine 
What must we do 
Open in flames
My soul is burnin
I have just fallin down my choosen road 
My heart is torn in too
No one around to mend my heart
Can it be fixed
Is somone out there who wil take it in
Out of the cold
Is there anyone out there 
Who wil take care of a heart?
Its so cold and black
Its slowly dying

I Know

I know its hard to understand me
but i want someone who does
even when i dont.
I want someone who will 
understand my needs
and ask why.
Want someone who's able
to take the pain away
with gentle kissies.
Somebody who'll be there
holding me tight 
sayin "its ok, im here"
even when i believe 
i am alright.
