Fade Out

Empty and alone
Pain overwhelms me
No more joy is found
Reasons to live
All have been lost
Ripped away from me
With a cruel smile

Knowing the damage
You could inflict
You went for it
Without regret
You set out to destroy
Everything in me
You said you would
Make me pay
Well congratulation
This you have done

My payment is made
In this blood that now
Drips from the wounds
Made with my hands
Done by your will
You can't have me
So no one else should either?
That may be
How it turns out

Soon we will see
Time, and my life
Seep away
Soon to be gone
You had my heart
And you trashed it
Now it belongs to another
She holds it tenderly
And even after my blood runs dry
My heart lives on

Now as my eyes close
For the last time
Should my soul be condemned
To hells fires
I remain at peace
For I know soon
I will see you there
