My heart has been split in two,
A bullet has torn through me,
In the name of my love,
In your name I have gone away,
And not a tear falls from either eye,
You merely step over my body,
You have betrayed my love and trust,
And because you have done so, I have told Him,

Heavy rains will fall from the heavens,
Into this bitter world of hate,
God is trying his best to cleanse it,
But He has failed once again,

I was so young when I first saw you,
You were in my heart from the day I was born,
I knew you were there even after the sun had set,
I felt you from high days to low,
But I did not know that you loved another,
And I guess he didn't know of me,
Because when he found my letters to you,
He pulled his gun, and I could not,

The ocean roars and eats the world,
It is God trying to cleanse it,
As hard as He tries, He fails,
And lets the night defeat the light,
It is always dark under my grave,
But it is where I will live forever,
I took a bullet for you,
But you didn't care and left me to die,

For each man on Earth,
There is a monster in his heart,
And because I have had mine spilled,
Mine has emerged to swallow you whole,

The world is slowly stopping,
And soon it will not turn at all,
Finally, God has figured out how to end the world,
And He lets it be me,

With my heart in two,
The world will soon be gone.
