You're as beautiful as the devil inside you
Yet I still find your evil attractive
Your death was painful enough for me
But not as much as your resurrection
I feel alive By your side
But I'm still empty and hollow inside
I feel alive By your side
But I'm rotting away inside
  Chorus:
Could this be a curse or a gift you've placed before me
I'll never know because you're not real
I always find myself asking the questions in the end
Are you a god or the beast within me?:

Your skin's so soft and gentle to the touch
But I hate the way that you feel
Because I always lose sight of you
When I open my eyes
You claim you're a saint but you're not
You're nothing but my disease
You claim that your name is on high
But you're nothing but the ground beneath me
 :Chorus:
I scream out your name with a vengeance
But I only hear an echo in the wind
Lay me to rest and nail my coffin shut
Leave me alone!
 :Chorus:

ummm.........nice!

Hey, I really like this! The lyrics are schweet!

thanks

reaper... Quik question ways ur style... Metal/heavy rock?

I'm usually a metal guy when I write lyrics but on this one I was more in a hard rock state of mind. I'm starting a band thats more along those lines so I thought I might need to branc out on my writing styles

I like the duality you've written into this one , death - resurrection , gift - curse , soft touch - hate , open eyes - blinded.
I wouldent keep it as a definitive style of writing but it does show that your 'in the middle of it' and as 'poetically frustrated' as you may be you're still able to see both sides of the 'story', and put it in perspective.

The song itself is something like a dream but in a sense it could be a nightmare at the same time. Its like dreaming of your dream person but thats all they are is a dream so the frustration comes out in turn being that reality is just a nightmare.
