Tears of Eternal River

[ Tears of Eternal River ]

Don't make me fall for you again
Because loving you means only pain
Like a blunt twisted dagger
Stabbed over and over

The nectar of your love is sinfully sweet
But I'd rather drink the venom of Belcher's Sea secrete
Than to suffocate in your deadly embrace
The poison will kill me instantly
But your love tortures me a slow pace

Your charm still dazzles me
Like a girl gone fuzzy
You stir me
You touch me
You feel me
With your glee

Yet I still feel my internal churn
To the thought of hurt that burns
No, dont make me fall for you 
Cause my tears still flow
An eternal river from long ago
