Time drags slowly on
we are powerless to stop it
Somehow the world exceeds limitations
somehow beyond our expectations
I'll admit sometimes I'm afraid
sometimes the fear runs through my veins
and consumes my body,
seizes my mind
Like the wolf's prey
running for its life
but its not for my life that I run
Its for yours my love . . .
I scream out your name
into the dreadful silence of this dead black night
Only to find your absense
which leaves me mortified and lonley
What ever happened my love . . . ?
You've condemed my heart
to no longer love thou
Thy words taste bitter
in thine mouth
Spit out the poison
that makes me curse your name
I shall swallow the blade
to aid my tongue in righteousness
Cover thine eyes
to prevent blindness
No longer a naive little girl
Where is thou heart my love . . . ?
Merciful be your heart
take pity on my pathetic soul
for I am nothing
I am weak
a mere face in the crowd
I do not deserve your love
I am unjust and unholy
Unworthy
You have conquered my heart
and enslaved my soul
What now my love . . . ?
What now?
