There are three curses of the soul And each in turn take their toll Upon meΒ For all I feel and know All I see
First is the curse of knowing too much Secrets thought forgotten in the dust Things I can never pull from my head Things that keep me awake in my bed
Second is another of excess Caring to much, dying in the process Wishing only to bring you back to life Wishing only to do what is right
Last and the most cruel of them all The fire at the bottom of the fall That which keeps me crawling through The trench of darkness to find you
Hope, a poison of heart and mind Hope to one day be kind To give you back sight To see your smile so bright For this I would die Maybe then I would see the light
