I started scribbling lyrics because I wasn't particularly involved in anything, and this is how they turned out:
I STARTED THIS FOR A PURPOSE
And now it all seems the same to me
Blurring the lines of distinction
I did not want it to end this way
I used to think you would be different
I thought you meant that much to me
But as the years have passed us by
I'm still left standing
Standing in place
I realize now these things cannot be mended
They do not heal or change
I was put here for a reason
Not just another mindless slave
That's what I keep telling myself
Even as my soul is beaten
By the shards of you
that were taken away
Drained like I never imagined
Used in so many ways
Abused by the only pieces left of me,
I never thought this would be.
I look up to the heavens for an answer
but they continue to rain the crimson
Spilling from your soul.
My mind has broken far apart
Severed at the core
I take a look inside myself
For the answers to what I am here for.
The memories come back to me
It stings like you wouldn't,
Like you couldn't believe.
I remember you in pieces
pieces of what you could be
I can see your face look up at me
Crystallized and frozen in space
I reach out for your hand at last
And this is when it stops
And I'm left here again
At the pit where this torture was conceived.
Splinters bury themselves deep inside
My weakened state
I try to find the reason
But this time I'm afraid it's too late.
Any thoughts, comments, etc. would be appreciated as always.
