MALICIOUS ABYSS

Our moon shed a tear this mourning
For true love found but ripped away
When the heart of an angel
Beat its last rhythm in my hands

Everyday I leave a rose for you
    for you
On your tombstone buried with thorns
I guess maybe it's the devil's due
     his due
That leaves me alive broken and torn

WHY DOES GOODBYE ALWAYS END IN DEATH?
IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK TO DIE IN YOUR ARMS?
I WOULD GIVE IT ALL UP TO HOLD YOU AGAIN
IN HEAVEN OR HELL

This torture is so absolute
Not being able to touch what I feel
Your presence still lingers here
The perfume and the taste of your kiss

Every night I still scream for you in dreams
     in dreams
I reach for you but you're like mist
Drifting away from me in between
     between
Malicious spirits in this abyss

WHY DOES GOODBYE ALWAYS END IN DEATH?
IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK TO DIE IN YOUR ARMS?
I WOULD GIVE IT ALL UP TO HOLD YOU AGAIN
IN HEAVEN OR HELL

To walk this inferno alone
Is worth it
When I do it for you

WHY DOES GOODBYE ALWAYS END IN DEATH?
IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK TO DIE IN YOUR ARMS?
I WOULD GIVE IT ALL UP TO HOLD YOU AGAIN
IN HEAVEN OR HELL
