A Battle Of Wits

xxxLizardKingxxx:
Do you think your life is figured out
Do you think your destiny's set
Life is like a great big pool
You jump in,expect to get wet

You can't stand on the sidelines forever dear heart
and wait for your dreams to come about
Sometimes you've got to take a chance
Get up,Go,Get out...


Misery:
Dear Heart, you seem forsaken
Just as the hope for change
Just as this scarred humanity
Whoes souls are now derranged

Dear Destiney, Control me
Guide my life to dreams
Till my fate is as unforsaken
As the glory which still screams


xxxLizardKingxxx:
But I am not the one forsook
For in humanity change there will be
All our souls are not so derranged
You have eyes but do not see

You would ask Destiny to control you
Guide you to dreams,fate unforsaken
If there inlay the glory that screams
Then your belief in Destiny is mistaken

Misery:
But eyes are as precise
As heartaches distorted twinge
And change is as absured
As Destiney's grief struck binge

For Destiney did decieved me
And held me in her void
Untill my heart did wander
On a soul still undestroyed


xxxLizardKingxxx:
I weep for you my wayward pet
For the twinge that holds your heart
But the absurdity is not in chance of change
The grief struck binge in Destiny did not start

Niether did the void derive there
It pains me to say this must be yours alone
For we can control what will be
Nothing is set in stone

By your own proclamation
You claim an undestroyed soul
To fill the void,what of love
Can you not exact its toll



Misery:
My friend, the toll is never cheap
and the heartache is never small
But I'd pay the toll and feel her pain
If she allowed me love's enthrall

For love...
It seems to favor
The souls who seem to not
She seeks to end my torment?
and the demons it has brought?


xxxLizardKingxxx:
I concede the payment can be severe
And the heartache quite vexing
But your thoughts on love,in and of itself
are what I find so perplexing

Love favors no one
It is open to all for the taking
You are like a sleeping beauty
Who refuses to come to waking

You question if she seeks to end your torment
Or the demons that haunt you so
If you feel no one understands love as you do
How are you ever going to know?


Misery:
To know is to live in calamity
You are often misinformed
For love has arms for no one
and for none has she reformed

My thoughts on love
...
They tease me...
For they seldom light its path
But when heartache bares its justice
They are quick to evoke my wrath

Come knowledge
You are not forsaken

For I shall never fear to know

For torment seeks no scapegoat
and my burden seeks no foe


xxxLizardKingxxx:
To know is to be armored
With knowledge one can endeavor
So that when the "injustice" of heartache occurs
You can quickly step in and retrieve her

Your burden seems to be your torment
Further...it's self-inflicted
Do you understand love could be yours
If your thoughts on it weren't so restricted

It may very well be true
Love is staring you in the eyes
But with show of strength against scapegoat or foe
You may also be turning away hearts allies
