Reverie ||
holding on for tomorrow
i let you take the best of me
and you left me with darkness and sorrow
and a mind incapable
of a peaceful rest
"Nay did I perceive within you
but what lay inside was more than temptation
of the treasure I took all that I could grasp
but I left you still with your essence
sinisiter being that I am
be thankful I was merciful
though in such horrible ways
it was merely an exchange"
An exchange not of within my knowledge
an unknown trade i let be
and your dark form took advantage of my still kindness
and i laid rotting within this miserable disdain you left me
though i reject your hatred and vengeance
but be you selfish and be you evil
you at least should know me
you lived by me
you took away from me
what made i...
"A single deed is nothing to me
I am this way because you could never be
and I am this way because it is my will to be
I am this way for your own good
you see, I am to fill in what you never had
and for you to succumb
was your own blindness
and not my arrogance
not my wickedness"
your desires i surely know
for so long i saw through you
but still i decided to live by you
to see you as my own
and to see you as a born brother
and now you insists on misusing your arrogance
and judgement of foul deeds
to put me in your place
to trial me for what you've done
for what you utterly deserve
"Hark the demons sing
my soul is mine to keep
and my deed is mine to determine
if you shall show no defense
while I let my darkness show
and I turn the ground to ash
why should I heed your cries
I gave you back what belongs to you
I merely exchanged back what I received long ago
return you shall to all that's inside
to what you hide, hide inside me
and kept it locked away, within me
and I shall not return to take it back"
And thus you shall run
and you shall start to hide
but now i see and i understand
you were never stronger and never wiser
you never were the cure to a misery
a call to the dark, turned to a call within the light
it was just unrevealed territory
and now that i've found you
you cannot run
you are neither inside me or beside me
you were always there
and all i ever needed
was myself
you are me
so let it be
