You¡¯d think I wouldn¡¯t miss you.
|
But your persistent voice cuts through me like glass.
|
Memories of not so pleasant times soon to kill me.
|
Like well-aimed daggers thrown through well-painted hearts.
|
But not this time.
|
I will remain myself.
|
Without influence.
|
And without desire.
|
|
Take my hand one last time.
|
Like a slaughtered lamb laid to rest.
|
And follow me to the burial plot.
|
On how we were once filled with promise.
|
|
Let me gaze upon that face one more time.
|
To resurrect regret and throw it all away.
|
To taste the lips that once invited curiosity.
|
But will now be given the chance to kiss the hand of God.
|
|
Take one last breath.
|
Make it deep and make it full.
|
And I will make it your last.
|
Take one last breath.
|
Make it deep and make it full.
|
And I will make it your last.
|
|
I won¡¯t be swayed again.
|
By your warm breath upon my neck.
|
Rather than listen to your voice.
|
I¡¯ll scream out the last rights of this love.
|
|
A book of pictures will fuel this fire.
|
Old letters of lies will become a pyre.
|
I¡¯ll be standing where we first met.
|
When I cast your ashes into the wind.
|
|
My heart has become your shallow grave.
|
No one to mourn you on this sad day.
|
My heart has become your shallow grave.
|
No one to mourn you on this sad day.
|
My heart has become your shallow grave.
|
No one to mourn you on this sad day.
