Swimming in the oceans, the bluest of the blue,
Struggling to reach that unknown surface,
As I gasp for panicked breaths in front of all of you.
Heavy shoulders, empty eyes;
Body weighed down by emptiness.
Do you understand me anymore?
Does anyone? Do you breathe me?
I was protected underneath those stars, and I had the whole world lying at my fragile feet. Although once the curtain closed, and the sun came out, I couldn't escape the simplicity of the fact that everything was a lie. A giant lie that began tumbling down. Tumbling, tumbling, tumbling... much like the tears on my ghastly face.
My heart is racing oh-so-quickly,
pulsing through the best of me.
Save me. Save me. Save me.
(Cause this world is taking me, taking all that I've got.)
I've got the devil's face imprinted on my heart, and he's dancing around in the very corner of my mind. [Make him go away!] My eyes are now constantly picturing his smirk, along with that jet black hair, and I collapse. I collapse into all of the yesterdays and all that could have been. A little girl's hero who morphed into the worst of the worst. Get away from me, just go, go, go, and go, go. Damnit, just go.
Restless nights, nightmares close by -
why do you have to haunt me, dear?
As I lay my head down, I prepare this world,
because I know that tomorrow I wonâ??t be the same.
I'm never the same. I change. I morph.
Every day I'm another thing I don't recognize.
Who am I?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.
This world has betrayed me; God betrayed me.
Trust evaporated and condensed into confusion.
Once again, I'm lost amongst this sea of blue.
Anxiety sears through me as the anger fades,
and like that once beautiful volcano - I erupt.
The angel has fallen from her glowing grace.
Finally, after all twelve years have passed.
And your loving hands just aren't enough.
Because that devil... that man has a grip that's just too much.
