Remember these words, for they are the one thing that will never fade
A future, no matter how dark or bleak, can always be remade
Remember my smile, for when I showed it, it was true
When hope shined in my eyes, before the blackness broke through
I did smile once, so long ago
When I was innocent, and just didn't know
When the future was bright, alive with hopes and dreams
Now it's all I can do, as I feel the knife slip through my ribs, not to scream
Always for the heart it goes, seeking that mortal flesh
Pain, pleasure, hope, loss...all enmeshed
When that dies, all hope is lost...or is it?
