Are you strong enough to stand against the rain?
Feet firmly planted in the ground braced against this hurricane
Stormy winds howling, screaming like some demented train
Where sights and sounds
Accompany the sensational pulse of pain
Display an ability to sustain
And thus look into the void and proclaim
Resilience is the key to attaining longevity
A formula that's known by all
Trouble is in trying
Bills that you just end up buying
Apparition hands every time I touch you
I am burning alive inside
Holding only emptiness
And a heart that you just can't buy
Far too late I realized
That when you spoke of love you spoke true
But you spoke of another
Not me, not once, nobody, no not ever
Waiting on the light to shine down upon your feats of righteousness
You're so divine (divine)
Was there ever a thing
That you prized more than life?
Someone who turned you around
So exquisitely you could not feel the cold?
I know we only love to cause pain
Yes and no, to and fro, here we go again
Destruction, ruination seem to be my only friends
It was the dwindling hope of love I struggled to maintain
I am the fool who follows hopelessness
In the certainty of defeat
The only victory to remain?
The endless search for sight will forever go unattained
And the only sound?
The laughter of a tragedy incomplete
