Verse One
Hold your hand out to the burning flames, and let them begin to ignite you
Feel yourself turn to ashes, and feel yourself fall to pieces
Don't resist to step out further and allow yourself to be torn
There's no need to run or hide, it will be better to stay
Just so you won't fall, or even have to
~Chorus~
Cry desperately to your broken spirit, begging these wounds to heal
Crying desperately to mend yourself
From these wounds
Because you can't have him and he won't come to you
Verse Two
Step into the black waters underneath, and let yourself sink in
Feel your breathing suffer as you're drowning in this dying pool
Don't pretend not to enjoy this suffocation or deny any fading pain
Just feel relief from sorrow as your horrors and life flows away
And you won't need to
~Chorus~
Cry desperately to your broken spirit, begging these wounds to heal
Crying desperately to mend yourself
From these wounds
Because you can't endure this pain and it still kills you
Final Verse
Don't you know there's no answer?
To either of your questions or your pleads?
Don't you understand they don't need you?
I know it's hard to believe.
But trust in this way
...
Of leaving this hell behind.
~Chorus~
Cry desperately to your broken spirit, begging these wounds to heal
Crying desperately to mend yourself
From these wounds
Because you are forgotten

- Title: Persuasion
- Artist: Italipinoy
- Description: This is a song that I wrote because I felt broken-hearted since this guy who I was in love with turned out to have a girlfriend and it hurt me in many ways and it didn't help that I was also being mistreated at the time. I named this song "Persuasion" because it seems like an inner conscious speaking if you think about it carefully.
