my Cruel Angel

are you my Cruel Angel?
are you here in disguise?
are you here to love me?
or here to despise?

if I asked would you hold me
or would you mock at my pain
would you comfort and protect me
or do I ask you in vain?

you've taunted and belittled
grinned on my behalf
you smirked as I writhed
slowly breaking into laugh

my love, my Cruel Angel
why are you here
my life, my tormenter
must you laugh at my fear?

there's so much to tell me
so much I don't know
tell me, my Cruel Angel
when you will go

you've ruined me, my love
my life lays in a wreck
love, why can't you love me
it's as though you broke my neck

love, I can't control me anymore
it's you who dictates
in your hands now, love
lies our two fates

I'll always be yours, love
no matter what you do
I'll be here, Cruel Angel of mine
I'll be right here for you

perhaps someday, my Cruel Angel
together we'll be
on the distant horizon, my love
it's just you and me.
