Live For Love

A time comes in every mans life
When a decision is to be made
"Should I go on living in this hell,
Or should I die by the blade?"

Is the pain something to sustain
Is it worth all the strife
Is it worth all the lonliness
Is salvation rife

Ive decided long ago 
To suffer through the pain
To go on living in this hell
For I have become the swain

Ive found a light through all the black
A house at the edge of the sea
A becon in this lonly land
And I know shes just for me
