I hear the sound of the world outside
As I try to find balance in my life
I have always struggled to get by
I have never stopped asking myself why
I have made the decisions I have so far
Then I reflect and tell myself
This is who you are
With every step forward
And every step back
I try to fill the pieces
That have chipped away
I push myself again today
To find the balance and the strength
That I need to succeed
Nyx
I hear the raindrops
Tick off my armor
As I stand in the valley
Ready for battle
I hold my sword to the sky
As I watch you quiver with fear
I look in your eyes
Before I say good bye
Nyx
When all is lost I look inward
Finding myself again
Nothing has gone as planned
Yet I still stand
With my head high
As the world looks smaller below
I look to the sky
Nyx
Live and learn they say
Why do we have to learn
By being ripped apart
Where does the pain end
When does this learning start
I do not believe these words are true
Each piece that is pulled from me
Is another piece gone
I was always this strong
What I have learned is how not to fear
But this was after being beat down
Year after year
Losing everything
Again and again
Falling further and faster
With no where to land
Being pushed down
Until I could not stand
Having my head pushed under
Until I was swallowing water
This has made me fearless
A monster you see
Do you think I would be someone else
If this did not happen to me
No I would still be me
Nyx
I question everything
I question everyone
I don’t know where I am
I don’t know what I have done
I am lost right now
My steps have led me astray
I hope I find my way again today
Nyx
Today I rise with certainty
Knowing my mind is too busy to be held down
This is how I escape my hell
Nyx
I question so many things
But I do not question you
You have stayed beside me
Through the good days and the bad
You have watched me crumble
You have watched me fall
You stood beside me through it all
I have watched many come and go
I have learned to rely on no one
Yet in your eyes I see
Something I have not seen before
A love untainted and so sure
I hope I can be this beauty you see forever
I hope I can hold this strength to go on
I hope I am what you were looking for
I hope I remain this person that you adore
I hope I give you everything
That you give me and more
Nyx
There are some things
I will never understand
A love I will never see
This was never meant for me
The type of love bonded through blood
This is forever lost
I fill the void in other ways
Sometimes it has a cost
I can fill my mind with wishes
Dreams and hopes of love
I can hope that I am guided
By love shining down from up above
But at the end of the day the truth is
There is no one left but me
Maybe my hardened heart
Will someday set me free
Maybe this is the only way
That I was meant to be
Nyx
I raise my head higher
Never looking down
My goal is to stay this predator that I am
In my empire I will stand
Without doubt, anger, or fear
My enemies will quiver when I am near
If you face me you will lose
In the end I always win
Play your hand my friend
It will be your end
Nyx
The demon I know
Or the unknown
There is no clear path shown
I wander away from the demon
Fighting through the trees
I hope I find blue skies today
As I continue to walk away
Nyx
