we’re frail and confused and we’re violent
we struggle with so many issues
we’re ever so flawed, but all in all
i’m proud, so proud
and your kind is somehow the opposite
you’re strong and you’re brave to the core
you roam through the skies, you attack in the night
and yet you claim you’re the light
and i am not afraid of you
your kind or your god
i am not a helpless girl
i’m an ant on the battlefield of gods
sometimes we stumble and sometimes we fall
and sometimes we hit something good
sometimes we’re ruthless and sometimes we’re not
and sometimes we do what we shouldn’t
you and i don’t need to partners
we’re nothing but means to an end
the words that we say should be meaningless
“i don’t even like you” he said
but we are more than who we were
the things we did before
we can stand tall together
i want to hear you say more
sometimes we stumble and sometimes we fall
and sometimes we hit something good
sometimes we’re ruthless and sometimes we’re not
and sometimes we do what we shouldn’t
they say he has nothing but archdemon wings
i say that he has me
he runs his fingertips along my cheek
“hush i’m right here, just breathe”
“don’t talk about her”
he’s mine to recover
we’re stumbling along in the dark
“you don’t even like me”
the pain fills my body
and now is the best time to start
