I'm by your side yet here alone
"The fire" has died but "the pyre" burns on
The world outside decays away
This time and tide turns flesh and bone
To dust and earth, to clay and stone
I am "forgotten" and "betrayed"

The wounds we open never mend
The're much to deep to heal again
My heart and mind were easy prey
The phoenix climbed. The flame's rebirth
She clipped my wings. I fell to earth
So now I die another way

In a heartless "death by love"
In the darkness

I should run
I should fly
I should spread my wings tonight
But I break down
Bruise and bleed
I give up to easily
I should learn to let it out
But my heart won't make a sound
It's a love song
Just a love song
It's a love song

I'm scarred and broken once again
I should have known how this would end
I found my "diamond in the rough"
This time you'll wake and find me gone
The same old sky, the same old sun
But all I am, was not enough

In a heartless "death by love"
In the darkness
