The ring upon my finger
And the sweat upon my brow
A perfume around me sweetly lingers
As I take my solemn vows.
The jewel upon her hand
Has since left me with a feeling, grand
And now I am well endowed.
And my love, who loves me fair,
Looked as the angels with golden hair
Had found her purpose being there
And my heart is delighted now.
While a feeling came o'er me
As she spoke these sacred vows
Such desire burned within me
Our love, is like a fire now.
Love! From love I could not be shaken
God forbid I'm lost in dreams,
And if so I will not waken!
Lest sadness over me be taken
And these vows would be forsaken
Then in truth I would be dying now.

Wouldst thou feel loved?
Then let not thine heart
From yesterday be worn!
In the world, be one with love
And thine feelings aside not be torn.
The being which thou art,
And things thine eyes have seen,
Take gentle care of thine own heart
And thy wits about thou keen!

Not all depressed people wear black.
Depression doesn't only come at night.
Not all of them listen to metal music
Sadness often comes without a sound.

The world is settled to judge quickly. They fail to realize that the world, too,  began as a dream.

"How Fascinating your mind must be!" 
Take a look inside, and you will see. 
It's very dark, don't lose your way.
People often visit, though never stay. 

"In your head, what would we find?" 
Things are broken, so please be kind!
Scattered pictures from a time before,
You will find it's quite a bore! 

"How lonely it must be inside your brain!"
It is a place that's seen much pain. 
Deep in earth, my love lies cold, 
From every lie it has been told! 

"We've changed our minds
We have our doubts!"
Then that makes two 
Please get me out!

I passed a man
On the street today.
He said Hello
But not his name.

I went to the cemetery
With respects to pay
This is the second time
I saw this man that day.

He'd been there a while
It was easy to tell.
Such a strange place
Where someone would dwell.

I said Hello,
But no answer he gave.
Though I learned his name
When I looked at his grave.

A fool chases his dreams
And leaves himself behind.
