"Dark Side of Love"
Where are you going,
what are you doing.
damn you, damn you,
who are you screwing.
No, no, I'm happy for you,
the silence from me is not that I'm muted,
I've nothing to say because of promises made
that only leave the meaning of words diluted.
"Always, till the end of time, forever,
I'd never hurt you" said without meaning.
Words now a token of my spirit that's broken,
here take my throat it's primed for choking.
Left with only two gifts if I'm to go on,
grab them they're fading rapidly,
an eternally saved but dehydrated soul,
and a heart currently filled with apathy.
With little left am I to smile and send
what remains of me for you to swallow,
and forgive and forget time that we spent,
that enabled you to leave me so hollow.
Without plausible reason, I avoid the sign,
I lie to myself yet one more time,
as I call myself up with my last dime,
and tell myself don't commit this crime.
Yes I'm left here at the crossroads to hell,
without feathery wings to travel,
and no bullet for my head to eternally end,
a failed love affair meant to last forever. |
