Coulda Been Prometheus
Coulda been Prometheus
Knowing the danger
Knowing the cost
Driven by need
To regain what was lost.
Neither death nor its promise
could place more fear in me than the thought of never again having you
Chain me to the rock where hungry vultures come to feast
The despair your loss brings
Is a more fearsome beast
Pain in the body can be overcome in due time
But nothing can save me from the tortures in my mind
Knowing the danger

Chain me to the rock where hungry vultures come to feast
The despair your loss brings
Is a more fearsome beast
Pain in the body can be overcome in due time
But nothing can save me from the tortures in my mind

It's such a twisted thing to say words of pain are beautiful. You've carved out such an intimate and heartfelt impression of the pain of loss. It is beautiful poetry, and it is deeply felt.
