I Wish She Were Dead
I wish she were dead
If she were dead
May be then i could have
Had enjoyed her lie by me
As deep nights surround us.
If she were dead
May be all she stood for
Would be immortalized
On cold stony floors.
If she were dead
May be the fantasies would cease
That supersede reality
But love never dies
That's what they said.
Humbly i bow, facing the end,
As I've found, painfully, what life really meant.
A fate all men face
The inevitable end to the rat race
we see, we feel, we fear
What lies beneath our apathetic face.
Hoping against all odds
That beyond the doors of our faults
Redemption, forgiveness, paradise,
Await us, our self-pitying lies.
In truth the summer dies.
Monsoon's rains and winter's skies
All hail the endless cycle
The toil of years gone by. Our demise,
Unquestionable obedience to Thy will.
Would she regret it?
Would she pray for one more chance?
I swear by my death bed
i'd pray for one more dance.
One more time to stare into her eyes,
One more sight, one more love driven crime.
I wish she were dead
May be then i could live for
Another future, faded within our closed,
Hidden destines.
I wish i was dead.
In another life i'd choose
Another path i'd fall in to.
Another choice, i'd fold in two.
No, i know..
Given my breath once more
Without a second glance over my shoulder,
in a promiscuous heart beat
I'd choose this this life once more.
