Is it written on my face?
The pain I feel inside
Tonight, my heart is joyless
I can feel the broken pieces
As they throb inside my chest
This loveless life I lead
I am a poet working overtime
Like the misery inside of me
Like the lunacy that calls to me
To the angel who stalks my every dream
Please take the time to rescue me
For my shredded soul is fading
Darkness overtaking
The burden of my sorrow
No clear skies tomorrow
Angel can you hear me?
I'm sinking deeper in dismay
Eyes becoming jaded
I'm growing tired of fighting
Hold me in your arms
Show me that there's more to life
More than endless heartache
Embrace me with your ethereal flesh
And know I'll feel the same
For this soul is yours to take
What's left of me
This empty tank
This broken tragedy
And when I fall into your arms
Legs too tired to stand
Know my love is true
And help me to move forward
