When a Man Breaks
You killed an innocent man
The thought he fed you lies
The only woman
He has ever looked into the soul
Never ashamed to show you off.
The man’s spirit still yearns
Yearns to be with you
How he'd give anything
His soul to sniff your hair
How he'd like to listen
Your heartbeat every night
What he’d give to hear you call
In anger, curse his carelessness
The man still searches for you
Requests you
Bring back his soul
Please bring back his love
Please bring back his life
Take him out of this misery claustrophobic
Alone is where he is
Widowed is what he feels
Just wants you to know
His soul would never roam around
Knowing your coupes lie
He would have come back that night
Told you that you are the only reason
Reason he breathes only reason
He knows you made him what he his
To him you are the best reason
Only reason to fall in love
