If he knew what lays beneath this skin
He would know that my heart beats
Like a voodoo drum in celebration
Strong and powerful filled with passion
I look upon the past in such regret
Wishing I would have taken your path
I want to walk with you through the woods
That ignite your spirit with hope
I long to to cross the river on a line
Like we had that day when we were friends
You confided in me as I did to you
And all the while I dreamed of us
He was there for me in all my struggle
I tried to be there in all his woe
You know I cared for you with every part
But I put you through the fire of my life
I had you walk on burning coals
That were conceived in my hell
I love you with every cell that composes me
However I know that all my words
Are absolute nothingness in your mind
Your world has no space for my flesh
And with this I brake into pieces
I disintegrate like dust in the wind
In the end I would do anything
To be in your arms and touch those lips
With my own in all the desire that lives
Within my soul and in my bare bones
You are there until I lay within my casket
My dear I apologize for all the strife
And yet I hold to my hearts needs for you
As I try to digress, my dear I love you
For the one I left behind
