Comforter





Looking out at the black, coudy sky, I dream

Standing alone, she is trapped in my heart and soul

Thinking of when we were together and wanting more

Wanting, wanting, wanting....



Snuffing out my hate, she kisses me

Like a light shining on a heart of darkness

Heart-shaped boxes and passionate kisses

I am with them again



Shakesperian rhyme, and flickering stars

Walks in the rain holding eatch other when we cry

Memorys of when our love was fresh and new

Heart in pain when we'd have to leave the other's side



Than reality sets in, sin and greed take over

Our love has gone sour like my soul

Squinting and turning our heads at love's shining smile

The newness has gone away, all thats left is the way it's now

.

Turning our head away, hoping it'll leave

The pain and change and sin stay like a cancer

Cutting and twisting our heart strings till we can't take it any longer

I have to leave, I have to get away from you



Innocent eyes so bright look at me, crying

"Why do you have to go?" she says

"I'm sorry, I just have to leave" I say

"I don't want to, but I have to"



I didn't have to go, I wanted to leave

I was sick in my head, sick of her

Sick of me, sick of us, sick of life

My hands shake at the very mention of her name



I remember us sitting and watching the clouds pass below us

Holding each other, warm with love

Sitting there, glazed eyed, remembering her

And how cut her heart and soul out, and showed it to her face



Loves fade I've learned, nothing lasts forever

With the constant feeling of self loathing

Our summer love is lost into the oceans so deep

As we go on with our mundane lives



Thr crimson tides laugh as we struggle. We

Swim in a ocean of pain and rememberance

Drowning in self-denial we lose our lives

To wide-eyed children playing in the sand
