Together 4ever

There's a cottage in the forest, way back into the darkness under the trees
There's snow on the roof and icicles on the eaves
The hearth is always cold giving off a freezing breeze
Believe it or not, it's the perfect place to grieve

Pictures of you line the walls keeping the heat out
My emotional prison, sentenced here to live the rest of my life out
Sheets of ice covers the windows instead of bars
I'm not allowed outside although the door is slightly ajar

Snowflakes fall like leaves all over the courtyard and trees
There is no life here except for me and my lover Misery  
Animals shun this place, it is like a bad watering hole in the desert
A place where they can remember tragedies like death and mortal hurt

They all view this as a place to slowly die
Isn't that something, to have the home that you love thought of as somewheres to die
But tears aren't allowed here, you're not allowed to cry
Wallowing in Misery is emotionless sex that it seems you courted her to try

Dinners served in the dark with nothing to gain
Trying to feed on a succotash of abuse, deception, and pain
But Misery is a good wife, she always prepare more than enough
For a game she flashes images of you until I'm about to bust

Cool sips of words that you said are played through out my head
A brain freeze isn't felt until they reach my heart instead
Because Misery realizes just where my weakness truly lied
The mind took the body to places although the heart defied

Misery reminds me that this marriage is destine for all times
And although she loves me, she will never let me get you out of my mind
For when I had love and happiness, I simply would not let her be
As the tree says, together forever, Misery and Me
