I swallow
hoping that maybe
with each ounce of pride
that i choke down
i'll be able to forget
...forget
there's a phrase
never remembered in the trail of time
so i wonder
while radiance of the sun
catches the ocean
while the moon beams
travel across the night sky
while two lovers sit
in the darkness of a passionate moment
...will you forgive me?
I took everything you had
your love
your heart
your soul
your life
and i trampled them
i neglected them
i abused them
...and for what?
for my own selfish pleasure
for memories of open flesh wounds
for the pure satisfaction
of knowing you'll be hurt
and lonely
and dead
without me
love
what a joke
what do they expect to find from me
what do they expect to gain
loving me is misery
loving me is pain
loving me means nothing
...for i don't have a heart to love
