He hurts and I weep, like days long ago
He should smile and laugh like before
But the sirens roar with a fantastic blow
And his soul is ripped to the core
For she called out his name, and wrenched out his heart
And now he is a broken spirit
I cry as he does, for I too have been thrown apart
His innocence draws me near it
He weeps as I hold him, his poor aching soul
Apparent as I gaze into his eyes
My mind's set ablaze like a glowering coal
My heart blighted and choked by the lies
Once I have felt it, and forever I wished
This evil blessed not upon my kin
For I know the heartbreak, burning and kissed
Is undoubtedly the worst possible sin
I'm sent back to a time when my life was bleak
The depths of my soul nearly dead
My emotions turned cold and impossibly weak
Each awful day brought me dread
Jaded and worn by some awful demon
Selfish was he in that day
He kindled my spirit, my heart set on reason
My fire was his in a way
But flame is doused by our falling tears
And I'm brought back to here and now
His spirit will mend; he'll love again through the years
We all find a way, somehow.
