Blackheart

Love and war accepts all fair game,  but it's a shame

Nothing left in the rubble of tremors, not a whisper, not a name

Not the same stain as before, bleeding heart being ripped apart

And it starts when two souls begin wishing on shooting stars 

From first sight to the last light the heart stumbles through fight or flight 

Who is she,  what's your name? 

You're beautiful, was that lame? 

Where are you from,  where are you going? 

I could die right now, is it showing? 

Am I boring or do I flatter? 

Does any of this really matter 

But it does, to a life of pain that has just begun 

To a life of misery that comes second to none 

Open heart gives way to open wounds, the cut flows deep 

I reap what I sow as my soul is too dark to keep

As a matter of fact, it doesn't matter, it's just a fact

That I lack the light within, I've succumb to a heart of black

And lost track, but found peace as the hatred increased 

As the humanity and empathy decreased, as love withdrew it's lease

You can never love what you can't trust

Which is why I've resorted to lust, and let the rest fade and rust

As the pain grows, the hate flows, indifference breaks the cage and shows

The face with no remorse, stone as if the hands of time froze

I must confess that aggression has brought digression to the stress

There's less of a dilemma now that I've laid my heart to rest

Buried deep below a life that blinds with the light that I lack

No love lost for the cost of love, my heart forever engulfed in black
