EDEN WITHOUT YOU

In a perfect paradise
With the golden orb above
Shining down on emerald land
And an ocean blue with love,
Not a soul to see us here
Nothing left to fight
No more darkness, lurking shadows,
An eternity of light.
You taste is lingering on my tongue,
Your hands leaving trails on my skin,
And in the obsidian depth of your eyes
I see a soul redeemed from sin.
But what is this deception?
Who plays this fateful game?
You lay your still-beating heart in my hands
And your last mortal breath speaks my name.
The sun that used to thrill me
Now chills me through and through
All I want is release from this place
What is eden without you?
