I heard the sky burn down.

Saw the ocean seduce the mountain.

Tasted heaven as it drifted away.

I felt everything just for your pain.

Children screaming fro their dear mothers.

There's no answer.

Just a man walking on.

He's twisted and dying.

Mind fall's away in attempt to keep still.

Coming undone at the seams, he is lost.

Lost in a world he so forged with his thoughts.

So many faces wanting to be free.

So many unsatisfied destinies.

You stand tall.

Thinking he'll fall.

To the horror he brought to his life.

Just a fool with misplaced dreams.

There's no destiny for a man without faith.

Dare you smile?

Dare take a glance?

At the unraveling of this man?

Falling down now.

Heaven's too far away.

Flames just fade away.

Feeling nothing.

Feeling everything.

Now he stand's.

Body shattered.

Mind is tattered.

Neither here nor gone.

Disconnected.

Still connected.

Mentality is just a series

Of broken dreams sewn at the seams.

Pieces of lives fading together

Inside of his soul

There is a brand new hole

Fill it with everything.

Everything you find.

Feel the empty void inside.

Will he live to save us all?

Will he stand to fight us off?

Can we string the pieces

Of our lives, just for a second.

To save this twisted, dying man

From another destiny?

The day I heard the sky burn down

And saw the ocean seduce the mountain

Tasted heaven drift away

Was the day I brought your pain...

But I couldn't bring myself to let you feel it all.

So bottled up, it sits now.

inside my crumbling mind.

Everyday I feel the pain.

Wish I were another man.

Wish I were the world.

The pain is just too much to hold.

It wants to break on out.

Can't let you see the pain inside.

The pain I meant for you.

If you ever see the apin I have

You wouldn't understand.

Lost in my mind.

Its a world full of lies.

Truth is an answer.

Which leasds to disaster.

I am a hypocrite.

Person beaten down.

Drowned myself in sorrow.

Burnt myself with rage.

Strangled by my jealousy

Of every other day.

Hate is my best friend.

Love is my obsession.

Both are quick to fade away.

Until the next dying day.
