A Hero Drenched in shadows

featuring lyrics from the discography of radical face. change pronouns, context, or sentence structure at your behest.

all my nightmares escaped my head.

you were never supposed to leave.

don't scare me off now, i'm your only friend.

i turned and fought them, like you always knew i'd do.

i hope for the best but nothing changes, i'm sorry.

i'll find out what broke me soon enough.

i don't have a lot left, just anger and something to prove.

i'm too scared to sleep.

you're always laughing, but you always look afraid.

i hear you crying in your sleep.

this one can't be fixed.

i hear you curse my name.

i hope that you'll forgive me one of these days.

i believed you'd never lie.

it takes a little hell to know what heaven is worth.

you gotta lose what's right for you to know what's really worth the the fight.

we're fighting for causes we don't really fathom.

let's make them wish they'd never lived.

i knew in my heart that my old life was gone.

i am a long way from home.

i pray to whoever is listening that things will be alright.

don't you dare hold me back.

i got a darkness wrapped inside me.

i was never one to lie down, despite who picked the fight.

i couldn't count on anyone to stand there behind me.

my heart will be blacker than your eyes when i'm through with you.

this life ain't no love song.

your name is trapped beneath my tongue.

you've burned me one too many times.

my thoughts are the cold kind.

don't you fear for me, i am where i'm supposed to be.

you were always gold to me.

you can blame me when there's no one left to blame.

there were holes in you, the kind that i could not mend.

i wish i had more nice things to say, but i was raised not to lie.

you remind me of what i could've been.

it's only blood, i have plenty left.

i'll fix this, i'll set things straight.

they cut me up, but i did them worse.

i'll be fine, i just need to rest.

it seems you're a lot like me.

if you need, come build your home in me.

i can't fix what was done to you, but i'll shield you from the rain.

if you need to take this out on me, you know i won't complain.

i hope you still see me just the way i was before i walked away.

leave me alone if your only words are ugly ones.

i don't think you had much to lose.

you were just something they'd blame.

trust me as though i am your enemy.

if a coward dies a thousand times, then there's a graveyard in my head.

you can save your breath, i know i'm not the kind you pray for.

they will just have to save themselves this time.

i don't know who to call my friends.

i don't know how much more i can bend.

the helping hand can be the same that holds the knife.

you gotta learn how to take your hits.

you don't have to ask if you're allowed to fall apart.

there ain't no fixing this, but i like that you tried.

there ain't no helping me, but i like that you lied.

i sometimes wonder if you still think of me.

i never meant to fade away, it's just the way i'm made.

i hope that if you ever hear my name that it doesn't bring you pain.

could you share a little piece of your sunlight?

by the time you turn against me, i'll have you figured out.

i won't bend, so you'll have to break me.

call me and i will come and fix you.

you can have what's mine if it helps you stay afloat.

i can't watch you drown anymore, my friend.

i'll tell you lies if it helps you sleep at night.

i pretended to believe when you said you're doing fine now.

i know you well enough to know you've had a rough go.

everyone loses themselves sometimes.

you sit and listen while i put on my whole tough show.

it's okay to need some help now and then.

i miss the way you'd laugh at my dumb jokes.

you don't need to forgive me.

how were you supposed to save me when you'd never found a way to save yourself?

you'll never know how much i hate you.

In lieu of my work hiring two more people, i just had my hours majorly reduced and have an entire week's worth of shifts withheld from me. Meaning from 6/10 to 6/18, i have been deprived of having any shifts which means no income for me.

Thus, the original intent of coms has been put on the back burner and is now just so I can get by for the week. I unfortunately work retail so our schedules can be changed at any given time even after its been officially printed for the week. 💔

“I love you.”

“You make everything okay.”

“I want to have a future with you.”

“You make me want to be better.”

“Please, let me take care of you.”

“You are what I’ve always needed.”

“You know you’re my saving grace.”

“You are loved more than you know.”

“It’s nice to know you have my back.”

“‘Cause you’re worth facing any fear.”

“I don’t know what I’d do without you.”

“Darling, only you can ease my mind.”

“I didn’t like my name until you said it.”

“I love you — no, I mean it, I love you.”

“Oh, and you look as beautiful as ever!”

“Loving you is an island in a raging sea.”

“Your smile is everything I aim to protect.”

“If you’re with me, then everything’s alright.”

“You make me the happiest I’ve ever been.”

“Now I know I have met an angel in person.”

“You make me feel as though I am enough…”

“Take my hand. I promise, I won’t let you go.”

“I don’t deserve this, you look perfect tonight.”

“All I know is, darling, I was made for loving you.”.

“No one’s ever smiled at me the way that you did.”

“And, because of you, I have a reason to be happy.”

“I never thought I could feel this way… about anyone.”

“You really know me, which is more than they can say.”

“You’re the only one who could see the good inside of me.”

“God only knows where I would be if you hadn’t found me.”

“Just let me stay here by your side. That would be enough.”

“I want to be someone better. Someone who’s worthy of you.”

“I’ll always be here when you need me. you know that, right?”

“I still can’t believe someone like you loves someone like me.”

“Of all the things my hands have held, the best, by far, is you.”

“Oh, you’re such a goof. But, you know what? You’re MY goof.”

“Forever is a long time, but I wouldn’t mind spending it with you.”

“They could turn me against everything else in the world, but not you.”

“Why are you always looking after me? Isn’t it my turn to look after you?”

“I am saying that you are more precious to me than you could ever know.”

“I don’t know how to describe how you make me feel. Happy doesn’t cover it.”

“When I tell you that I love you, I’m not saying it out of habit. I’m not saying it lightly.”

“Loving you is sunshine, safe and sound… a steady place to let down my defenses.”

“I don’t know what the future holds. But, as long as I’m alive, I will always love you. Forever.”

“There’ll never be anything you could do to chase me away. I love you, I’m not going anywhere.”

“And every bit of love left in this beat up, banged up, scarred up heart… baby, it’s yours if you want it.”

“All the languages, in all of the world, and i still cannot find the words to express just how deeply I love you.”

“I could live without you. I could fight without you. I could survive without you, but, that doesn’t mean I want to…”
