Mute
1.25.05

Darkness and dreary and I can’t press any harder
And you can’t sing about it and I don’t speak, no I can’t speak
Because the words get lost somewhere between my mind and my throat
And I can’t say “I love you”
Not with words, not in this darkness

And memories fall repressed
So they die away...

Bite down on your tongue, swallow the blood along with your fleeting words
Like serpents crawling they bite into me
Ravishing, leaving empty the well which could never quite be full

And love falls to decaying
So in the death shall we lay...

So, if you think you love me
And you think I believe your words
You’d best remember that I'm not willing
To help you heal this hurt
So, if you think I love you
And you’re dumb enough to whisper worthless words
You’d best remember, darling
Love hurts, love hurts...

And darkness eats the soul
Devouring, eternal
Darkness bleeds the soul
Cryptic and ever so alone.

<--- fall into my patterened tears... [return]
