You told me you love me "I'm flattered," was all I said You tell me you love me, And I blush. But now you've left- Never even said good bye... Seems like an eternity since we've spoken, Didn't even get the chance to tell you I'm in love with you too. Now I'm alone, Holding the picture of the two of us together, Unable to speak. You have the other half of my soul. You always have... It's just that now I know. Burn with me at the Holy Church My beloved. Come burn with me. Our days are numbered And coming to a close. So come with me And see our souls as they are... See our sins through the eyes of the immortals. Come fry with me in the Lower World My paramour. Arise and wither with me. Daylight has transpired And twilight is ever-widening. We must hurry now Come with me into the Faraway... The Void yet to be discovered. Black-laced eyes, in disguise Cover an empty soul. These angel cries Are beautiful lies, Draped on prayers of gold. Concentrate on the unknown, Push your soul away Happiness on loan...I feel I am on my own. (Repressed memories leaping forth, crimson tears slide down my crimson-stained cheeks.) Acid-tongued thoughts, Angel eyes so full of wonder. I was afraid of hurting you...so I left. The more I love you, the more I want to hate you. Broken haloes and rusted wings, A bloody tear slips down his cheek. Angrily he tears at his robe. Sleep deprived and lonely, I begin to cry For lack of anything better to do. In the Garden of Good and Evil, The temptation was there Life, beauty, and strength Radiated f rom the center of the darkness That surrounded her And everything she knew. She longed to taste it, feel it's warmth and bathe in the beauty of it. And then the serpent appeared... Pain Inflicted On unsanctified flesh Writhing in agony -- Or is this bliss? Desperation Deception And heresy Are one here My skin is porcelain My heart the most fragile glass My body worn Now chipped and cracked I lie still Waiting Waiting for someone To help me mend I've been mistreated Dropped and forgotten Left in the rain Drowning in the storm My dress is ragged And covered in mud My eyes now stained I've cried until they bled I need someone to love me Like I once loved you But who could love A torn and tattered doll I've seen so much More than my share Yet I will survive you Like so many before I've seen so many Loved so few I've seen so many You are really nothing new.
