Gates of Infinity

by ICN

only you can understand the pain that i’ve been through. cause you’ve been forwards and backwards as many times as I And lying on our backs we arrive at the gates the gates of infinity the recipes written down and the past all is we’ve got to hold on to As I spiral into oblivion All I can think about is you As I drown in my eternal misery all I can remember Is that there was a time When I thought everything would be all right There was a time When the world didn’t seem like such a bad place When I didn’t notice all the corruption And when the eruptions commence I shall remember your name But as my grasp on the earth recedes please, Please don’t forget me As a pawn in your game I can’t safely say What I feel However I renounce the position of pawn And demand the position of queen For no one but me understands What’s been clearly bestowed in your hands Hidden away in eternity Lies the key to immortality And as your memories begin to accumulate Mine slowly starts to fade away But don’t worry my dear It’s all still very clear Forget me not, darling I’ll forget you, in the morning.
