As torn as Stefan guarding his shame,
As wild as Damon playing the game,
As brave as Elena taking the blame,
As cold as Katherine changing her name.
As manic as Kai laughing at pain,
As ancient as Silas rising again,
As selfless as Bonnie bearing the strain,
As cursed as Tyler breaking his chain.
All I wanna do, all I wanna do — survive,
All I want to do is to belong to this life.
As loyal as Jeremy ready to fight,
As steady as Matt holding it tight,
As sharp as Enzo striking by night,
As wise as Alaric judging what’s right.
As warm-hearted Jo loving despite,
As bright as Caroline shining her light,
As ruthless as Mikael hunting by night,
As dark as Esther weaving her might.
All I wanna do, all I wanna do — endure,
All I want to wield the dark and the cure.
As ruthless as Klaus claiming his throne,
As noble as Elijah standing alone,
As restless Rebekah wanting her own,
As silent as Finn chilled to the bone.
As reckless as Kol claiming his own,
As powerful as Freya fully full-grown,
As crowned as Marcel king of his own,
As strong as Davina magic well-known.
All I want is to be, all I want is to be — immortal,
All I want is to defy death eternal.
As loyal as Josh steady and slow,
As brave as Aiden refusing to go,
As steady as Vincent keeping control,
As fearless as Hayley striking a blow.
As destined as Hope born to overthrow,
As burdened as Josie hiding her glow,
As reckless as Lizzie losing control,
As jealous as Aurora loving her foe.
All I want is to fight, all I want is to fight — together,
All I want is to guard those I love, forever.
As haunted as Mystic Falls in the night,
As sharp as the White Oak stake in the fight,
As wild as witches casting their spell,
As fierce as wolves and vampires as well.
As bound by Bennett blood through every cure,
As fated as doppelgangers enduring the lure,
As reckless in New Orleans, legends arise,
As powerful as legacies that never die.
All I wanna be, all I wanna be — epic,
All I wanna do is, be a part of it, always and forever.
