Death So Bleak
Take my hand, I mean everything.
Our final stand, now sorrow sing.
No one can see me, our dreams so far away.
The murderous filigree, falls into yesterday.
Through these shadows forever, always walking through the never.
A chilling silence, in a world of violence.
A comfort calling, into the white light.
Continuous falling, into euternal night.
Lay me to sleep, as I hold my breath.
I laugh as you weep, at my slumbering death.
If only for one night, only one night together.
Should I continue to fight, as I held an angel's feather.
Now wait, I finally see.
Asphyxiate, for you're killing me.
All this rage, I cannot let go.
The inner war I rage, cannot possibly show.
I know your deception, I know your lies.
I don't need your protection, for I hear your cries.
I walk through hell, laughing for you got your wish.
Should I tell, as you got your deserving dish?
This day so hollow, as I look upon you.
The lies I swallow, just to get through.
Remain where you are, in your prayer position.
You're just another scar, in sorrow's disposition.
Such calamity, comes from your smile.
So much animosity, coming from my denial.
My soul brings tears, to angelic eyes.
The end of these years, say your goodbyes.
You beg for me to share, yet I'm too weak.
Why should you care, that death's so bleak?
Your love unfair, left me unable to speak.
I took this destiny, and tore it apart.
No more pity, for you broke my heart.
