I Close My Eyes and Count To Ten

I close my eyes and count to ten Hoping, praying, begging That by some grace of God my heart will stop loving you As the earth shatters Each shed of glass cutting deeper I beg and plead that the pain will end So I close my eyes and count to ten As darkness grabs me by the throat And I struggle to keep hold There is only one way that I can see the light So, I close my eyes and count to ten As I fall into oblivion As the fire of hell bursts into my eyes As tears of acid burn down my cheeks It is only you that I think, When, I close my eyes and count to ten Why is it that when there is nothing but pain I think of you to light the way Why is that when I begged God To forget you It is only because of you that I believe that there is a God I can’t understand yet I still, Close my eyes and count to ten
