Singed By Love
Open your heart, and blindly we'll see
The irony, that is you and me
What was meant to, but never meant to be
Just hit rock bottom
Dang.... And the pain was too much to bare
Love locked and loaded, fired at will
And it seems only I was caught in the crosshairs
with bullets of temptations and frustrations
Struck through my heart and hit patients and dedication
.... Creating beauty in Devastation
So hold your applause
Hold the applause there was no cause for celebration
A man has been shot,
A-Man-Has-Been-Shot!
Shoot down in his occupation,
Which was to love you....
but the flame that was our love, still burned bright
Shadering the darkness in it's light
Leaving no corner unturned
not an obstacle out of sight
And now blindly we see....
That "our love".... has burned itself
But with no time to give
We stood our ground
Then turned around,
And what we found?
A sight so profound
That mere description needs no sound
So busy fighting off the world
That we couldn't see that our flame.... Has already went out
