Broken promises, Shattered dreams, Deafening voices; Bursting at the seams. As I throw down my last hope, And like a vase, it smashes, I breathe, and like the great Phoenix, I start to rise from the ashes. Perseverance is my only strength; Humanity drives me mad. To survive, I'd go to any length, Never seeing good or bad. I'm unloved, My feelings hide. I'm undone, My feelings died. I was wrong about loving you, I was wrong to believe, You were wrong about me, too; I wasn't born to deceive. I lie to myself, To stay between the lines. Put back on top shelf; And now I see the signs. Cast light upon my wounds, Poor salt into the burn. I'm a chaotic wasteland I give away what I earn. You're the nothing I despise, The one I love to fight You'll never be my demise I've kept you in my sight. And now my final words, This'll be a big surprise; It's in nothing that you keep me, But from nothing, I will rise.
