1 " In regards to the candle that burns at both ends-how brilliant the light is for the beholder!How beautiful the pain of that candle isTo those who only witness from afar,But will never truly feel the price of such a shine. "

2 " Reality is setting in, my lady,You have no one who will save you-But yourself.This kingdom needs a rulerAnd that ruler is you. "
3 " It was just a game for you-your flames blazed brighterAnd with my sizzling coals, I mistakenly thought I was the strong one-You drew me in as easily as you put me out. "
4 " The moon did warn meHow shadows love to playTricks on eyes too willing to believe Sending hearts into chaos and disarray "
5 " He is the illusion of which you dream.He is a beautiful afterthoughtOf all the words of love left unspoken. "
6 " Love, they compare you to an unending battle-riddled with pain and wracked with tacticsTo pull the other down into a deathly embracein which there is no loser:For I am beginning to believe that my lossIs truly his, and his win is my gain. "
7 " As surely as I wasn't born the most free,I would like to die with more than I was born with. "
8 " It warps reality with its unseen hold:The colors of your world are drained out,Bled from your mind untilAll you have left is an ashy, unending gray.You are unable to see beauty any more,It killed all that was beautifulAnd left you to flounder in the ugly abandon. "
