Splinter
You think you killed me but im still here
You may have splintered me into pieces but im healing
The process hurt but now i have nothing to fear
Im stronger now, though im still dealing
All you poisened devils whisper your lies
Threading your way into my life
Smiling while a part of me dies
But you will never have this soul, this life
Go ahead try again
You'll never have power over me
Im no longer lost in what could have been
I look towards what i can be
I let you in once and now i know my mistake
Ill be more careful this next time
I wont allow those in that hide their face, fake
Ill walk away, head held high this time
Try to screw me over and ill make sure
You regret the thought of even trying
You'll get whats coming to you be sure
While your down ill be the one flying
Change can be hard but its needed
I can feel the change inside me slow
This dark side this chaos has feeded
Comes from deep inside and below
Black and white they twine like ribbon
The colors of my soul they change
Ive taken these lessons ive been given
And lost myself to this change
Behind these bright eyes a demon smiles
To embrace this dark ive given it a piece of me
Some would say to let it in defiles
But those who dont know cant really see
That not all strength is something we are born with
This strength i have has been forged in the fires of disaster
Strength built and the price of baggage it comes with
The way of life im still struggling to master
Not everyone can grow while containing innocence of the dark side
Threading into my sense of self these life lessons learned earlier then most
To the unexperienced i cannot truely confide
So these memories remain inside haunting as my own ghost
One day maybe ill be able to finally heal and leave it all behind
Till then ill just keep breathing, all i have to do is just breath the rest will follow
In time i hope there will the peace that i seek to find
Some happiness to fill the part of me that i had kept hollow
These scars they heal, these splinters become whole
Ill keep my hope and dreams alive
The light will shine from within, from my soul
Ill have strength from my faith to take the dive
Ill use the dark to enhance the light
Balance all sides of me kept uneven
And keep hope within the line of my sight
The life of my dreams ahead and the shadowed past im leaving
