despair
all night becomes day
nothing's alright, nothing's the same
why am i supposed to choose life
when you just took your own away?
it's a very ugly place, this fight
you should see, since you left, how i've aged
we were stugglin, but fightin this fight
together...but you gave in, you caved
you left a horrible vision burned in my eyes
that i see again and forever, day after day
do you know my whole world went silent
and that i can't even find strength to pray?
because i'd be askin my lord for an angel
to come down and take me, also, away
i hate and fear both solitude and grief
and here's a soul sobbing, sad thing to voice:
we did say forever, til death we would part
but the time and the day weren't for your choice!
i love you, not even death breaks that bond
i understand, baby, you know i too know despair
but to leave me in despair here without you
my noble darlin, it jus wasn't...oh, baby, not fair!
