What I Want

I want to live my own life
I want to make my own rules
I want to pursue my own destiny
I want to do things I want to

I want to only take those actions
That I feel are worth being done
I want to only make those corrections
That I feel are worth my time or fun

I want to make my wishes come true
I want to solve all my problems through
I want to make all my dreams real
I want to act as I want to

I want to only feel for those
That I feel are worth my feelings
I want to only heal those sorrows
That I feel are worth my healings

I want to write what I care for
I want to be heard by all I want
I want all these fantasies to exist
I want to free myself from you

Fade Away

You left me stranded, you walked away
Leaving me alone, leaving me astray
I waited for you, I stayed here
From the moment you left, due to our fray

I was living a life I couldn't control
I was telling myself lies that couldn't be told
So is this how my life will unfold?
One where the devil will have my life sold?

You broke my heart, you left me shattered
Into pieces, you left me all tattered
It feels my pain never really mattered
Hence why you left me completely spattered

You show me your back, you turn away
As these distances arise, you fade away
So I stand here, feeling this way
Living a life filled with misery and pain

Scars

Burning within me are these deep scars
Raging within me is the agony of pain
As I stand here alone, waiting for you
My heart is torn apart in the fear of losing you

These lost memories that remind me of you
Hurt me everyday within the flames of fury
With these open scars that you've left me
I die again sheathed in your hatred

My guilty conscience stings me again
As the weight of the world comes crashing down my shoulders
Yet I am still here living in this world
Waiting on this misery to come to an end

I feel ashamed for these wounds I am left with
Yet it is my fault and so I keep on moving
Walking along on this blazing trail
Until I can find a heal for these scars

Rise Against The Ashes

Rise against the ashes
Ashes that the elites burn
Burn away your past
Past that is full of shadows

Shadows that surpass time,
Time that was unholy for everyone.
Everyone awaits their future
Future that's full of lies

Lies told by the gods
Gods that know our demise
Demise is our fate,
Fate that is defeated by none

None of the above may seem real
Real, yet is what we don't remember
Remember the souls of the heroes
Heroes that again shall rise

With These Last Words

It is just another day in the city of angels
It is just another day when no one is asleep
In this very moment I am resigned to my fate
Where failure surrounds me and my doom is near

At times like these, I remember the sunshine
At times like these, I remember you here
For with you gone, the sun has set on my life
And now all I see around me is misery and pain

Not so long ago, I was resolute to get you back
Not so long ago, I only wished we were together
Yet those moments have passed me and I'm all alone
And now I am just falling into the downward spiral

With these last words, I say adieu
With these last words - I wish I were you
For then I could see you when the sun sets too
Alas, these silly dreams are too good to be true

Into Pieces

You've left me into pieces
And gave me no good reason
Burning me alive again
You're killing me every season

All that I have now, are the memories of you
All that you left behind and the sadness too
I'm still trembling with the darkness left behind
As your thoughts fade, leaving me unrefined

I am a zombie, you are my potion
Every passing moment, you become my emotion
You are my soul, you are my savior
Hold me together, change my behavior

I'm still breaking, falling into pieces
Since you left me, for no good reason
Desperately trying to hold myself together
I await the day when things will get better
