I've lived a thousand days before,
Endured the strongest pain.
Despite the hate that I have stored,
Until I grow insane.

I overcame the biggest odds,
And fueled my desire.
Considered self amongst the gods,
Could walk across the fire.

Did everything a man can do,
I crushed those in my path.
And lied to all just to get through,
Who stood would face my wrath.

Had no regrets in what I've done,
I really did not care.
That if I find my friends all gone,
Alone would be just fair.

Believed I was invincible,
My anger grew in length.
Hatred was inevitable,
Evil became my strength.

I was a man so full of pride,
And thought I was above.
Consumed by evil that's inside,
Without a pinch of love.

I'd face the days like I foretold,
Care not who I neglect.
Never tire or getting old,
And live without regret.

I always thought I'd have my way,
Do whatever I do.
Until I reached this fateful day,
The moment I met you.

The changes - very difficult,
Adjusting was quite tough.
Was like religion or a cult,
Could never have enough.

I paved the way for my success,
At last, I found the light.
But something turned to less and less,
As love turned to a fight.

I understand I was to blame,
The hurt, you don't deserve.
Though deep inside we feel the same,
It's love, we both reserve.

In time I'll bring back what we had,
Retrieve you from the hate.
I used to be an evil lad,
Like me, it's not too late.

I'm sure that love will be once more,
Our light and guiding hand.
Deliver us, forevermore,
And that, you'll understand.

For now I act, as well as speak,
I swear that I will do.
What it may take, it's love I seek,
That's what I feel for you.
