Betrayal / Forgiveness (song and poem by Perttu Kivilaakso)

All that I ever wanted

- to understand my nightmares

Possessed by my fears

Betrayed by my Pride

Alone I wandered in the deepest Dark

Seeking comfort from the vanity

Each time I escape the Real

My soul died, died a bit more

Confronting the evil within

Praying for my angel to appear

Agonized whisper into the emptiness

Begging for salvation - salvation for this cursed mind

Words without meaning

Touch without feeling

- I did not recognize my own face...

Eyes that were once shining

- now extinguished

Left only a silent cold

Sound of a tear falling down

In the desperate hour of loneliness

This shattered heart reaching

For it's relief - the relief it can not find

Glance without affection

Kiss without sensitivity

Promise without comprehension

Love without hope

-I do not remember my own tale...

Betrayed by my Anger

Betrayed by my Beliefs

Betrayed by my Delusions

Betrayed by my Lust

(I wish)

Strength - to be released from my demons

(I desire)

Wisdom - to forgive the past

- to forgive Me
