Eternally, I'm yours
We only communicate through closed doors
Communication failure, what is left?
Anything to say? Another breath?
Will our love live to see another day?
Eternally, I'm grieving
I'm still broken
Having trouble believing
The words spoken
I gravitate towards you
Your beauty always radiates
Turn the grayest skies blue
And i cannot escape
...Even if i wanted to
Release me from this spell
Free me from this mental hell
How I'll never tell
Break me out of this shell
My personal demons are breeding
Spreading diseased thought
They're eating away my mind
I can't get out of these tangled knots
I lose myself in dreams
The closest to death i can get
With memories from a time long ago
With a pain I'll never forget
...If I can escape...If I could escape...
If you could find truth anywhere,
Let it be
In the words that expel from me
It's all i have left to give
It's all i have left to live
The colors are changing before my eyes
Turning red and orange under gray skies
As dull as life and as vibrant as death
I live on the thought of my last breath
The land is barren
Only the dead grow
Expanding indefinitely
In magnificent columns and rows
I'll take my rightful place among them
Not as a diamond in the rough
But an undiscovered gem
