Mandatory?

It's deafening to be inspired
required to be part of
this wheel of destiny
when you have already strived and bled just to be

Life Abide Death

life abide death
death abides the law of life

abide the law of life
and death will abide life

abide the law of death
and death will abide life

Sweet Hatred

To love this lady
you must be very crazy
dreams can die
hearts can fly
everything can go awry
but hey gotta try
To love this lady
you must be very crazy
roses become daises
love fades or linger
sing a sweet song to her
defazed or deferred
You must be crazy
to love this lady
and fool her wounded heart

Until......

Until you die
I would cry
tears of happiness
not of sympathy
you couldn't see
the errors you that you have ignored to fix
beacause of it
I'll be grateful when your gone
I would be happy once more
I'll breathe more easily
I'll laugh without hesitation
I'll talk on and on
but until you die
my world will be isolated

In Ashes my Tears Now Lie

Here in ashes do my tears now lie
for every dropp filled with unrequited love did i cry
a smile that always cloud my sky
hear in ashes do my tears lie

I cannot smile a smile
but in one's eye its decieving
i cannot smile a smile
behind it lies choked words

words that i even hide from myself
it makes my tears taste even bitter
it makes the pain in my heart grow stronger and stronger
this smile is just a lie

so slowly is my smile fading
so slowly its secret is revealing
and so quickly im trying to stop the tears
but i cannot stop this secret from revealing the truth
