H.O.P.E. (Hold On Pain Ends)
How sweet it must have been for him to see
How far I was willing to go to please
Everything I did was not for me
Hoping it was enough for some release
But failure found me even in my dreams
The sugar plums transformed to blood stained hands
Destined to be chained in the dark it seems
In the deepest abyss in all the lands
Sitting alone amonst my memories
I can't escape the torment of my past
Or erase the deep scars and their stories
Wishing on stars that this breathe is my last
I found hope again in a phrase of my friend
"If it's not okay then it's not the end."
