| My emotions are killing me. |
| The violins are singing and the world swirls... |
| even as the barrage of rocks hasn't stopped falling on me. |
|
| The world is weighing me down |
| while all I can think about is you. |
| How can I push the rocks away when my mind is somewhere else? |
|
| Visions of lips and flesh still run through my mind. |
| I can't let go of the past. |
| The world freezes while the memories swim over my eyes. |
| Huh? What? I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention again. |
|
| All I want to do is to hold you in my arms. |
| Tonight. Tonight. |
| Why wait? Why another night? |
| Tonight. Today. Now. |
| I can't wait a second longer. |
| I must hold you in my arms once more. |
| We've already been apart too long. |
|
| But wait. |
| Still the rocks of the world weigh me down. |
| Damnit. |
| Free me. |
| Somebody free me. |
| For God's sake would somebody free me! |
|
| Curses. |
| Loathing. |
| I remain in darkness once more. |
| Bitter. |
| Betrayed. |
| But in love, still. |
| Yes, still I shall love you. |
| Forever. |
| Forever. |
| Even as the world weighs me down. |
| I love you. |
