Please Forgive Me

Please forgive me, I am useless 
And I ain't nobody's light.
Empty soul, covered by bruises.
I'm so tired. I cannot fight. 

Please forgive me,  I'm a sinner.
All my angels flew away.
I'm a looser, not a winner,
Not a chance I'll find my way.

Please forgive me, I'm a monster,
Not your hero, not your star. 
I had dreams, but then I lost 'em,
Killed by every painful scar.

I Am a Parody

You're my beacon tonight,
I see you through my malady.
But I don't deserve this light,
You should not be my remedy.

And you are my perfect sky,
Every star that I shouldn't see.
I'll never have wings to fly,
So just fly away from me.

And I'd like to let you know
You're my wonderful melody.
But I'm not an angel, no.
I am a parody.

You Never Could

I remember the darkest day
When my only dream faded away.
But you never could see my soul,
So tonight I am ready to fall.

Every day's just another fight
And I'm slowly dying inside.
But you never could heal my scars,
So tonight I won't see the stars.

I'm alone in this broken place,
All I want is to see your face.
But you' never could feel my pain,
So I know that you'll leave me again.

I can't hear the sound of my heart,
'Cause tonight I have fallen apart.
But you never could give me a hand,
So I won't even try to stand.

I've been running for thousand years,
I've been hiding in silent tears.
But you never could hear me scream...
So give me just one more dream.

Hey Little Girl

Hey little girl, don't cry.
It's all gonna change someday,
Someday you'll learn to fly,
Someday you'll be okay.

Hey little girl, just smile.
I know, you are falling apart.
Just close your eyes for a while
And don't let them see your heart.

Hey little girl, be strong,
No matter how scared you are,
When everything is so wrong
And dreams seem to be too far.

Hey little girl, just live
When your world's about to die.
Someday you're gonna leave
And never again will you cry.

Take Away My Shattered Dreams

Take away my shattered dreams -
Every little piece.
Stars are crashing. And, it seems,
I was born to miss.

Take away my broken heart -
I don't want to feel.
Once again I fall apart.
Maybe I 'm not real...

Take away this endless pain,
Take away the light.
Maybe, I will die again
Only for tonight.

Take away my frozen soul.
I don't want to fight.
Leave me and just let me fall,
I will be alright.

Tear Me Apart, Throw Me Away

Tear me apart, throw me away
'Cause I will never be okay.
I'm bleeding out, my feelings flow,
But I will never let you know.
And all my demons make me fall,
Just let them eat away my soul.
I hurt so much, but never told,
I'm crashing down and it's my fault.

Yesterday I Died

Yesterday I died.
It wasn't hard to leave.
I should've held on tight,
But didn't care to live.

Yesterday I left
All this pain and fear,
Memories I kept.
And now they disappeared.

Yesterday I said
To this world "goodbye".
The bullet in my head...
It will never lie.

Yesterday my heart
Was so filled by pain.
I've fallen apart
And never will again.

Never will I be
Desperate, insane.
Never will I see
That it's all in vain.

I wish I could fly
To the lightest side,
Live and never cry,
But yesterday I died.

I'Ll Never Let You See Me Cry

I'll never let you see me cry.
These tears are mine and no one's else,
Inside of me they never lie,
But my disguise, it never tells.

This pain is mine, so I won't share
These heartbreaks killing me again.
I know, these words you never care
So I'm not saying them in vain.

I keep this anger by my side.
I'll never take it out on you.
And even if I die inside
You won't know what I'm going through.

You Are

You are my world, you are my stars.
You are the air inside of my lungs.
You are the sight, I am the blind.
You are the universe in my mind.
You are my fire, you are my ice.
You are the reason of my sacrifice.
You are my novel, you are my song.
You are the one I want to belong.
You are my truth, you are my lie,
You are my silence, you are my cry.
You are my fiction, you are my lure,
You are my poison, you are my cure.
You are my freedom, you are my cell.
You are my heaven. You are my hell.

I Give Up

This fight is over. I am done.
Eviscerated I can't cry.
My strength, my dreams, my hopes are gone.
I guess, this is my last goodbye.

'Cause I am broken and forlorn,
Too deaf to hear, too blind to see
That I have always been alone
And there is no one here for me.

I turn to ashes. And it's real.
Just let me drink that one more cup
Of pain, that I'm so tired to feel,
And no more suffer...
                                         I give up
