Part of Me (Male Voice)
Once I was one and you weren't real. I had nothing to give, there was nothing to steal.
And my world was of pain and the first time I screamed; then you took it away and told me to lean.
And by holding you tight, by the caress agreed upon, evil would seize; made your loving be
a part of me.
You came and you claimed you're my friend, it is true, and all joy that exists is created through you.
You gave me your comfort, a home and a chance to earn all of the love that you gave in advance.
Thus my life had a path clear of strife and all wrath and your vision and plea was reality
as a part of me.
Thus our bond was the basement for all that I've built and your guidance and aid was the soil for my skill and I prospered through foster and warmth of your quilt; well too late I realized you penalized all that dared to rise from the domain of my will while you patronized to make me memorize the things you didn't like would hurt your soul, make you ill; all my structures are ruptured by sanction and guilt.
And the longer I'm wake and the longer I seek Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I know that I know nothing and it makes me so weak and I try to find out, cast aside the bad seed but my heart and my thoughts are infected too deep; I tear out healthy tissue as well to proceed and I hear myself cry as I feel something bleed; something I have forgotten, from which I did flee, that will always recur, never cease willingly
It's me.
You had told no demands, so to let you quite near; now you rule my whole world with a promise and fear.
And you give the gross beauty one finds everywhere to me 'cause I am special and you've got some to spare. And thus make it my duty to separate and share all I cherish and see with what you want to be:
A part of me.
Now I realize life without you starts with pain, but it's mine and I thrive and work hard to remain. I'm aware that my feelings stand bare without guard; but when my reason and heart start to disagree, then to be free I need to separate from
a part of me.
I remember our past when I look in your face, past the wistful remorse in your eyes, past the haze, I can see that you know and have known from the start, that I will not make you what you can not be.
