Loveless Soul


I used to be whole

I used to be strong

But now it is all gone

Never to return

Fallen to a husk

All my ashes burned

And all that was left was dust

The fragments that displayed pain

Are nothing but memories

Strung together by the chords of loveless hope

And backed by the shadows of doubt

I was never the one you needed

I was never the one who cared

All my feelings are just opened scars

That symbolizes what we once shared

I never doubted you

I never brought you harm

But now my soul is in shambles

And the key is permenantly gone

Lost in time and space

Is this what you wanted

A husk made of straw for you to burn

Inhale my smoke for you to get another high

I'm in chains and I can't get out

My mind leaves me

But a sweet voice still remains

Her voice is of sweet milk and honey

Her is skin is almost nonexistente but I feel it

Where did you go my angel

Why wont you show your true face

Are you also nothing but a forgotten memory

Could be

I never was good with emotions

I never was good with love

It was trial and error except the failure looped

No on really stayed by my side

My complexity drove them away

Are you the one

No it couldn't be you talk behind my back

Leave me to rot

Leave me to bleed

Leave me to starve

Where's the key

The darkness takes over

No limit to its hold over me

I can't breath

I can't think

I can't feel

What is this power

It fills me with rage

It fills me with sorrow

It fills me with happiness

A sadistic happiness

Red is everything and nothing

The cracking of bones is a sound of harmony

Harmony that fills my ears

What are you

Are you the monster that I never wanted

But always wanted to be

Where are you

Are you the monster that hides in the dark

Only to be seen by the weak before they pass

I am not this monster but my soul hurts

It hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts

I want it to stop

I want everything to stop

Time is nothing but a figment of the mind 

Reality is nothing but false ideals

Space is nothing but a lost promise

I am nothing but a mere puppet

Since there is no soul then there is no love

My angel has lefted my side

She no longer breathes as I breathe

Her sweet words of wisdom are no more

Her wings no longer wrap around me

I am cold and heartless

I am cold and heartless

I am cold and heartless

Those words ring throughout my head 

They won't leave They just won't leave
