"Don't let your past dictate who you are, but let it be part of who you will become."


Break through to the burning temples of my life
Cram all of everything into me with a knife

Love me like there’s no tomorrow
But beat me with endless amounts of sorrow

Treat me and care for me until the end of time
And then walk away as I think of how you were once mine

Swallow my mind in an endless stop of the world around me
Push me, squeeze me, and go on living without me

Build our love up to what you have said it would be
Then crush me down to the ground and leave me lying there hopelessly

Watch me live drowning in my own tears
And walk away as if you had never heard my voice with your precious little ears
