Through the ups and downs I see
A bright light before me
A light that beckons me to follow
It is there no matter how far I have fallen
It is there no matter where I go
I know it will still exist
This light is there
Even as I fall
Into the depths of hell
Under the tides of the sea
Under the covers at night
With my eyes closed tight
I can still see the light

Sometimes I think that I am beaten
Sometimes I think that I am done
That is when I stop and remember
Everything that you have done
These actions drive me forward
These memories that you made
You were the one I trusted
My life was in your hands
Everything I did to make you proud of me
Everything I did I wanted you to see
I was your daughter
I was the one you were supposed to protect
Instead all you did was lie to me
Confuse me with truths mixed with lies
Until all I wanted was to escape you
Everything I have done
Is a result of what you did
Everything I do
Is a fight to beat you
You are the reason I am who I am
Yet you are the reason I still breathe
You are the reason I stand
Well dear father someday you will see
What you created
What you made
Someday you will see
That you will never beat me
I may be bruised
My bones may break
I may wake up everyday and suffer
From eternal heartache
But when all is lost I see what you have done
This is what drives me forward
This is what makes me carry on
I will fight for those born to suffer
What you have put me through
I will fight through the pain
I will fight because I have no choice
There was no turning back when I broke the silence
There was no turning back when I used my voice
Nyx
The cage is opened
I have stepped through
You unlocked the door
I owe my life to you
You gave me the freedom to keep fighting
The strength to push past the door
The strength to pick myself up
To find who I was before
I will never forget what you have done
Because of you my life has begun
The dawn has come
Now I see the sun
Nyx
There is an echo in my mind
It’s pulled from space and surpasses time
It tells me that I have a purpose in my life
It tells me that I am not alone in my strife
My battle between the darkness and the light
Is one fought by many each day and each night
Keep fighting for happiness and love my friends
That’s all that really matters in the end
Nyx

The light has dawned again
A new day has come
I hate that I am reminded sometimes where I come from
Once again I bring myself out of that dark place
Once again I stand up and look past that face
Leave me alone darkness
I swear you will never win
Stay where you belong… live your own life of sin
I dream in black and white
I dream in shades of grey
I let anger course through my veins
But sometimes certain words aren’t kind to say
I have a heart filled with love…not with hate
But sometimes anger pushes forward…but before it’s too late…I find myself again
The world is not so black and white
The world is not in shades of grey
The world is full of color
That shines with every passing day
