Firefly
How could i ever be so blind?
I fooled myself into swallowing the lie
That you loved me but hid it inside
I was in a trance a dream inside my mind
Everything seemed real
But it was all fake
I received the pain i was supposed to have
For the risk i had to take
Telling you my deepest secret
Though everyone knew
That I was so in love
So in love with you
But i was never really in love
I was just happy
But when you begun to ignore
I was just miserable
I was left bored and dull
YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND
BUT I GUESS WE ARE NOW IN TWO DIFFERNT WORLDS
YOU ARE IN A WORLD OF HAPPINESS
I AM IN A WORLD OF HURT
A WORLD OF DOUBT
AND I AM DROWNING  IN THESE WORDS
my firefly
your light had begun to fade
i've tried so hard to love you
but you just push me away
so i will stop this now
before i consume myself
i won't fall victim
and fall into my hell
you were my shining sun
you were my everything
i still love you
but i can't take the misery
so i'll take my love
and let her hold it in
because i know with her
love can win
so my best friend
friend if you ever were
i'll still be here for you
but i'll just be with her
so i'll see you around
if you even care
and my eyes will miss
your glare
now i will not live in the days
where the sun will bright my life
but in the dusk
Where the moon shines
For the moon is mine
And she lights my soul
With the stars
And she loves to hear
the beating of my heart
and i can fall into her so easily
but i will not
'cause i don't want to lose her
and mess things up
So for now
she's all i've got
'cause you have the world and i've been lost
and you let your love rot
so goodbye for now
i'll be on the moon
wish us good luck
see you soon

And if you must be miserable
I'll be miserable with you
And help you get thru
For I remember when I
Looked into your eyes
And you made me feel alive
And I would give anything to feel that way again
I'd give anything to feel your soul again
Oh(sigh)

piece from "Release Soul."
You could make me warm
When I was cold
And I loved to dream
Of having you in my hold
Oh, how I hid it so well
You could never tell
And that was my mistake
Keeping it inside for too long
For when I told you, it was far too late
And then it all went wrong
Time will not heal
All the bruises that I have
I guess I was wrong
Our love won't last
Because I gave in
And you gave up
Together they are
The destroyers of our love
Side by side in silence
In different worlds
Might as well stay silent
You never hear my words
And I will forever stay
In a dark, desolate cave
Until my bones
Turn to dust
And my heart of metal
Begins to rust
Until I drown
In the flood
I'll always have
This useless love

Always alone
Until the end
Forever known
As the obsessed best friend.
