- - - FEEL SOMETHING - - -

I feel empty and void
A precipice laid before me
Without you here
Sullen for all to see

Time will not fade these scars

Have I been left behind
In a world that's been left for dead
Without you here
Or is it in my head?

Kill me when I'm numb
'Cause I need to feel something
If you even care at all
Hold me when I'm cold
'Cause I need to burn something
If you even care at all

Pitch darkness engulfs me
In an everlasting shadow
Without a hope
I'm storming from below

Time will not bare these scars

I wish that you were here
Instead of just a sad portrait
Without a hope
So, what happened to fate?

Kill me when I'm numb
'Cause I need to feel something
If you even care at all
Hold me when I'm cold
'Cause I need to burn something
If you even care at all

In eternal suffering
Our hands clasped together
To burn in Pompeii
Failing forever

Hold me when I'm cold
'Cause I need to burn something
If you even care at all
Kill me when I'm numb
'Cause I need to feel something
If you even care at all

Time will not bare these scars

Kill me when I'm numb
'Cause I need to feel something
If you even care at all
Hold me when I'm cold
'Cause I need to burn something
If you even care at all

If there was music playing to these words/lyrics, what would it sound like?

Just beautiful, romantically darksome... I hear deep, slow, basey black metal with slow intense drumming and very deep goth like (think Peter Steele) vocals.

What do you think?
