Akron /ˈækrən/ is the fifth largest city in Ohio and is the county seat of Summit County. It is located in the Great Lakes region approximately 39 miles (63 km) south of Lake Erie along the Little Cuyahoga River. As of the 2010 census, the city had a population of 199,110. The Akron Metropolitan Statistical Area covers Summit and Portage counties, and in 2010 had a population of 703,200. Akron is also part of the larger Cleveland-Akron-Elyria Combined Statistical Area, which in 2010 had a population of 2,780,440.
Akron was co-founded in 1825 when suggested by Paul Williams to Simon Perkins. In 1833, "South" was temporarily added to the name when Eliakim Crosby settled a bordering North Akron. After Summit County formed from portions of Portage, Medina, and Stark counties in 1840, Akron succeeded Cuyahoga Falls as county seat a year later. The Akron School Law of 1847 created the K-12 system. In 1851, Sojourner Truth attended a convention and extemporaneously delivered the original "Ain't I a Woman?" speech. During the Civil War, Ferdinand Schumacher supplied the Union Army with oats produced by his mill along the Ohio Canal. Between the 1870's and World War I, numerous churches across the nation were built using the Akron Plan.

Genres: Action, Animation,It's me, something that doesn't exist anymore
Just the shadow of what I was - a human being
I remember the life I lived, now so far away
Memories are preserving my human part
I want a crystal heart
To not feel this cries
The beast is a part of me, I need it
That's why I'll always have to fight it
Inviting power and desire
It wants to take away the light of my soul
It's me, forced to eat those I once belonged to
At every drop I fall down, more and more
A long night that will never end
