The One, the Only, the Imposter

I can feel the end drawing near
Muddy water becoming clear
People running from what's true
They are all running to you
Just to find you let them down
Stomping them into the ground
Befriend them for their future suffer
You are the joke without laughter
You're a hypocritical drama queen
"Seen more than what we've seen"
One by one we fell from you
Together we can see what's true

Dreams

I find comfort in my dreams
in the ability change the earth
bend the limits this life bounds
and creating my own self worth

Words In This Empty Mind

Words In this empty mind,
I'm your shadow that fell behind,
In a world so dark and stale,
All your strengths are yet too frail,
So beautiful is the mind that is free,
So malice is the mind that can't see.
 
 
You tell no one everything,
You tell everyone nothing.
 
 
You see Life without fate,
You love with all your hate,
You dress all your ways with lies,
You dance upon your alibis,
Your path so cold and frozen,
You're last but the one that's chosen.
 
 
You have told me everything,
But now you tell me nothing.
 
 
Hate and love run through my vain,
With the intention of becoming sane,
Within these walls I can begin to feel,
We cannot touch what you conceal,
Words In this empty mind,
I'm your shadow that fell behind,

Jaded

I sit here in the broke light,
watching shadows on the wall.
Wonder what would be like,
If we had made a different call.

We could've been anything, 
but we chose the hardest way.
I dream of who I use to be,
In the light of a different day.

The ultimate self control.
I controlled it all away.
All I was was someone else,
Now I'm broken and astray.

These shadow they follow me,
they make it so hard to live.
To survive is such a challange,
when you give all you can give.

The Choice

Unable to speak, to say how I feel,
For how could anything else be real.
What a decision; a choice to be made?
Constently told that I must behave.

My Mind is bored. Is my heart untrue?
When I'm alone It keeps thinking of you.
But how bad I'd be to rip this apart,
For it's so childish to break his heart?

But to lead you on is the same crime.
Someday in new light; a different time;
SO I must hold back and hand with care,
Only time can show what will real be there.

Am I the One

Am I here like any creature 
or am I here to change the future
Am I the one who has to suffer
Am I the one or just an imposter


Which way would I turn
To evil or to good
Will I win the battle 
Do you think I would?
Am I here like all of you?
Am I here no matter what I do?

 
So let the pain begin
Let the rain set in
For nothing so truthful 
Was ever this powerful
I will not cannot fall again
I'm be here to mend the end
and fix the bruises on this earth
I will be lifes rebirth
