Empty Passion

Guess I owe you an explanation Bout why I’ve gone and pushed you away It’s not for the lack of me longing That’s the reason why I can’t stay One day away Is like a lifetime apart Our souls speak without touching But here’s the worst part Within me’s a struggle You can’t comprehend My feelings the curse This want has me damned This empty passion I’ve longed to fulfill It’s much stronger than I am It’s broken my will Lust turns to liquor That crosses my lips The pain of what I’ve lost Must be destiny’s wish Agony knows me It lives in the lust I’ve loved you since day one It’s just time I give up No words can describe us Please go on your way I’ve let an Angel turn to demons At least you can be saved This empty passion I’ll never fulfill It’s much stronger than I am It’s broken my will I’ve dreamt of what could be And I’m dreaming still Guess I’ll dream on eternal For the dream not fulfilled Guess I owe you an explanation Bout why I’ve gone and pushed you away It’s not for the lack of me longing It’s for that as to why I can’t stay I’ll want you until my dying day
