I Can'T Forget You

The candle flickers and stops 
The dark is leaves me thinking of 
A night halted in pain
Was this all in vain?

The trees whisper a soft song 
Outside my window all night long 
The dark's replaced your sweet voice 
This wasn't our choice.

But I can't forget you.

Rain

Frozen by the depths of darkness
Creeping in to find you defenceless.
But it never leaves you, never lies,
It's all beauty and all life. 

Pain is patient, Pain is kind
Pain has love on its mind.
Look for light, trust in the dark
Not one without the other,
No beauty without rain. 

So scorn me and drown me 
Hold me in the grip 
Of a thousand vices over my head 
Crush me and taunt me take me away
Give me the guts to break free and run 

Beauty in the depths of despair 
broken bones and silver hair 
Keep me alive, keep me out of sin 
Lock the door, don't let me in.

Devotion

My old dreams have lost their place,
My old words have a bitter taste.
Love me and leave me,
Step on my feet.
It's gotten too dark love 
I can't see.

Shattered glass, all over the floor,
The seams are all undone you've locked the door.
Kiss me don't leave me,
Out of desire. 
It's gotten too dark love 
I can't see 

Our good times, are coloured in black,
Our sweet crimes are never coming back.
Hold me and take me,
I feel so weak.
It's gotten too dark love
I can't see. 

Young love was crushed by young life. 
Never forget where we stood 
Or how we tried.
All a heart can do,
Is be the shore to the ocean,
Holding on so tightly to
A distant devotion.
