Tyrant

Can we make amends
Do we just pretend
That we're over all the violence
Are we done with this
Put it all to rest
Turn the screams now into silence
Will you be a man
Can you make a stand
Will you own up or deny it
All the time we lost
Was it worth the cost?

Of breaking a family in two
Destroyed All we knew

A Tyrant, so defiant.
Lonely as your heart is sinking.
Consequences, no defenses.
If only you had been thinking
Compliant, for a moment.
Why did both of us have to believe
That we were riiiiight?
Tyrant!

Can I clear my mind
Leave it all behind.
Start to pick up all the pieces
Can I hide the scars
Just like prison bars
That have always seemed to confine me
Will we save it all
Even from the fall
Is there time left for revivial
Can I be convinced that some hope exists

With these wounds cut so deep in my soul
Can we become whole

There's so many things that I wanted to say
But the love turned to hate. we kept pushing away
And the words that came out, turned into a mess
And its like pulling teeth, Cause you'll never confess
Now the damage is done
The hurt and the pain when nobody has won.
Have we forgot its your blood inside of my veins
That feeds my heart!
