lyrics

Little did I know, that when I wrote this song,
I was writing it all for you
Now when my fingers touch these keys,
I am waiting for your cries,
To let me know that you’re near

This song goes unheard
Your silence speaks a thousand words
I was blessed to have you near
You’re never forgotten

Hush, no need to hark
The Gods will caress your tormented heart
The burden of your tear
The thunder that you fear
No longer are your threat

An agony, before unknown to me,
Unveiled itself through your death
My body and mind ceded into a slavery of a darkness not felt before

This pain is not harsh enough for what I have done
Nothing can ease this pain
As long as you’re gone, I am miserable

I am a stain on this earth, smudged into life
Lonely is this home without you
At times I still feel you
I forget you’re not there
When will this pain subside?

Blessed be your soul, mine is damned
I killed you, my best friend
Society is a curse that bludgeoned you to your hearts arrest
We gave in to this world in castigating you
If your end had not come, would it have been mine?
Would it have been?

We kept you behind a palisade
To guard this world from your flailings
You are potentate
And as such now Spirit, you are quiescent

Forgive me
Can you hear me?
Forgive me
I still sense you’re here
Forgive me dear Spirit
