Despair!
Glorious, Glorious Despair!

Come sit by me, let us talk for a while
Let's pretend, oh, yes! let's laugh and smile
And all the time we put on a show like nothings changed
You have your part, I have mine and it's all the same

Hear the sigh? The sound of utter apathy
It's hard to search for an ever after happily
Through the forest, across the river
Love is lost untill we search for the Giver

Despair!
Glorious, Glorious Despair!
When I lose my self
In your sombre-eyed stare.
Despair!
Glorious, Glorious Despair!
It's the sound of your laugh
or the wind in your hair.

Hope endures though fleeting glimpses past
Taught me never to think, hope never to ask
Wait! Love is patient, let's count the days
until I say it, and I will, I'll say it in so many ways

Despair!
Glorious, Glorious Despair!
When I lose my self
In your sombre-eyed stare.
Despair!
Glorious, Glorious Despair!
It's the sound of your laugh
or the wind in your hair.

Draw me back into Your Despair, sing Glory
I lost myself but only to find the Victory, sing Glory
I searched for the light only to blind myself, sing Glory
And forgot You, the Light, could only help, sing Glory

I despair no more...
