the winter too lonely, the summer too arduous
yet i have held on despite the broken parts of me
i trace the early hours, wrapped deep in your mystery
unanswered questions always seem to stray near the surface
my love, this has been a long and merciless journey
my reflection lays defiled and rotting within thee
i have tried to beckon beauty out of your soul, so calloused
yet i have held on despite the broken parts of me
you fill my cup with words you've said so vainly
it's hard to see your honesty when its used with such force
my love, this has been a long and merciless journey
i've been struggling with the strength to finally see
that you've always been the villain, rotten and full of bitterness
yet i have held on despite the broken parts of me
tonight i will not lie to myself, it's time to finally believe
that our destiny's lay in two seperate worlds--its simply torturous
my love, this has been a long and merciless journey
yet i have held on despite the broken parts of me
