I danced with a man today.
He had your eyes.
Oh, how those eyes made me weep.
Pure sorrow.
What a strange day it was.
To see your eyes.
Looking into mine.
Again.

My mind burns

With thoughts of you

You are etched into my brain

And I cannot shake you from my heart



My heart yearns

For you to be near me

Your touch still lingers on my skin

Even after all the days I have been away from you



You are so dangerous

Still, I cannot escape my desire

I have lost myself in others before

And I fear I will do the same with you, my love



I am afraid of being consumed

By such a powerful force

I fear becoming lost

Within your pain



I've been down those dark roads

Many times before, my love

The mystery of the path

Ensures my return



Misery is our only company it seems

As we trod the lonely road

Pain is not far behind us

The future is unknown

Weighed down

By dark desires

Burdened

By the love I have

Unable to keep you

Yet unable to let you leave



I've been here before

My heart is breaking

As I sit here staring at the floor

The tears are back

Burning as they always have

Bitter tears

For wants and wishes and dreams

That can never be



I've been here before

Crushed by promises that were broken

Before they were ever made

Torn apart

By the pain I feel inside



You are my darkest dream

You are my midnight fantasy

I want to go down with you

Into that world beneath the light

I want to slip away into oblivion

To be consumed

By the darkness that follows you

Wherever you go



There is romance

In your tragedy

There is a brilliance

In your despair

I love you and I hate you

I want you and I need you

You are everything

And I am nothing



I have been here before

Lost and confused

Unsure of what to do

Asking a God I don't believe in

For guidance

Screaming in my mind

Grasping for meaning

In something I cannot possibly understand



I have been here before

And it broke my heart

I have been here before

And I lost my mind

I have been here before

And it took the very breathe from me



I cannot go there again

I cannot.

I can't get you out of my head.

I can't get you out of my heart.

I lie and cry in bed,

As your problems tear me apart.



You're everything I ever wanted

And more than I could possibly need.

Your presence leaves me haunted

And fills me with a hunger I must heed.



You're killing me inside

Yet, I can't leave.

You're the place I go to hide;

And you're what I believe.



You are mine and I am yours;

No matter how this ends.

Even when you leave me behind,

My love will never bend.

The darkness draws you in

A hidden soul, so pained

A secret sin

The rush of anger leaves you feeling drained


Thoughts swirl around you

Broken dreams and wishes emerge

There's nothing you can do

You can't resist the urge


The need for relief is suddenly so real

Searching for your safety

Fingers brush against cold hard steel

You take a deep breath and hold your arm steady


A gleam of metal

Reflected in your crying eyes

Cutting as deep as you can go

Biting back your anguished cries


Blood drips down your arm

And you receive a sick thrill in your demented soul

From such twisted harm

Tearing yourself apart really does make you whole

I've never tasted such sweet tragedy
In a kiss.
How long can I keep running back to you
Like this?

Your the one I wanted
For all time.
But you're losing the rhythm
I'm losing the rhyme.

We keep running
But we're losing the race.
I know you can't deal
With coming in second place.

The bad times
They're coming.
They're gaining up on us
We're losing the race, my darling.

Blessings come and go,

Like the waves upon the sea;

And as my heart swells up with love,

I know it's going to leave.



I've seen this all before;

I've seen the seasons change.

It is the winter of our love;

Oh, how we long for sweet spring.



You are the one that I adore,

And I know you feel the same.

The world will dance around the sun,

Perhaps, we'll meet again.
