THE HARSHNESS

So acclimated to each others lies
I do not know what is real anymore
All the empty promises and untruths
I long for the touch of your poisoned thorns
Waiting in the shadows of others deeds
Accomplishments and fruitful endeavors
Make me seem shallow by comparison
I dream of a better life in fevers

And I need you to want me to never give up
But I feel life it�s never enough
And now it seems like our love was a casualty
Face to face with our demonic enemies

I NEED YOU TO BELIEVE
I NEED YOU TO WANT ME

So decimated by each others lies
And when we fuck we are making hate
Giving new life to animosity
Leaving the sheets ripped with malicious rage
A murder of crows flying overhead
Singing a song of the approaching doom
I pen this poem with my very last drop
Of the blood that I have wept for you

And I need you to want me to never give up
But I feel life it�s never enough
And now it seems like our love was a casualty
Face to face with our demonic enemies

I NEED YOU TO BELIEVE
I NEED YOU TO WANT ME

I all am is all I was
When we were young and foolish
Unscarred by the harshness of life

PERHAPS I SHOULD
BUT I NEVER COULD

All you are is what you are
And you still leave me breathless
Unscarred by the harshness

THE HARSHNESS OF LIFE

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
As all the years pass away growing colder
You are the rock set against the maelstrom
Keep me steady against the cataclysm

And I need you to want me to never give up
But I feel life it�s never enough
And now it seems like our love was a casualty
Face to face with our demonic enemies

I NEED YOU TO BELIEVE
I NEED YOU TO WANT ME

I all am is all I was
When we were young and foolish
Unscarred by the harshness of life

PERHAPS I SHOULD
BUT I NEVER COULD

All you are is what you are
And you still leave me breathless
Unscarred by the harshness

THE HARSHNESS OF LIFE
