|
We are one |
|
This breath of love swells my heart to bursting |
|
I was nothing without you, and |
|
Now I stand complete |
|
Your beauty brings me to my knees |
|
And with every moment I feel more unworthy |
|
I feel that you could slip away |
|
In the blink of an eye |
|
And before it seems I've even blinked at all |
|
Tragedy falls upon this love |
|
I swear I knew it was coming |
|
But why can't it be me? -Now breathing stops; I'm just choking- |
|
Oh God, why can't it be me? |
|
I could never make this choice on my own |
|
Given a thousand years I'd never find the answer |
|
This is not my place |
|
But as the tendrils of my mind creep into my soul -And though I'd- |
|
It's as if the very life-force in me -never wish for her to- |
|
blackens in the mind's embrace -suffer here- |
|
And as this darkness takes me, |
|
I can feel my heart fade -I just can't let her- |
|
Fade away and leave me for nothing |
|
I have witnessed such beauty |
|
And it's slipping away from me |
|
Having caught a falling star |
|
Which now crumbles through my fingers |
|
The quality of life has decayed |
|
A dreary monotone wasteland remains |
|
I know what I must do |
|
I must play God and give her mercy |
|
I must end the suffering |
|
She would do the same for me |
|
I can't leave her here this way |
|
But how can I go on |
|
Living with a heart that's been stilled? |
|
But as the tendrils of my mind creep into my soul -And though I- |
|
It's as if the very life-force in me -never wished for her to - |
|
blackens in the mind's embrace - suffer here- |
|
And as this darkness takes me, |
|
I can feel my heart fade -I have now let her- |
|
Fade away and leave me for nothing |
