Alter

 I set the fire

You set the fire

It is my fault

It is my fault

An upside down cross illuminates my skin

I feel the warmth begin to envelope me

I listen to the screams

You hear the screams

I let it happen.

They're my screams

The light above disappears with the setting sun

Darkness envelops me

The darkness grows inside me

I'm blinded by my present

We were tied together

I am tied together

There will be no escape

There was no escape

I will burn you

I let you set the fire

I'm beside my self

I cannot hold on

One last look

One last breath

Facing a mirror

Facing my foe

You deserve to burn

I deserve to burn

Second to I

My bitter tongue is no more

My equal

My cleft hooves

Up in flames

Down due to lies

My self

My soulmate

No more

Truth Hurts

 I was your friend for convenience

You were my friend for real


We spoke our secrets in whispers

We shook hands on our deal


Every day we'd share our lives

round and round on a wheel


The inside jokes turned icey

And looks we used to steal


Halted like a stop sign

Broken from the ordeal


The storm clouds followed above me

They're all that I could feel


 I was your friend for convenience

You were my friend for real


Now I know the truth of it

Now I can begin to heal
