My Love, do you hear?
How long will it take for you to remember and recognize me?
I feel the emptiness in my heart
The absence of my soulmate echoes through my life
This pain is excruciating
I remember you
They can tell me I am crazy
I just wish you were here
I made a decision
That I would rather be alone
Than be without him
Even if I have to suffer the torture of separation
The agony of a hundred lifetimes I have to fulfill in this universe
I don't understand it
But when we made love, everything changed
Maybe not for him, but for me
It's a curious feeling when you meet your soul mate
We have more than one, yet there is an uneasiness in the air
A breeze from the hands of time flowing past you
Whispering, "Remember, remember..."
Once I recognized who he was, my whole world changed
The world no longer feels as if it has a defect
Death does not seem to sting everyone, instead, it carries them gently away to the world over yonder
I had known him before from so many lifetimes, and I will continue to again and again For now the darkness is night
An eventual ending to the long day
Tired end to all life
There is no more escape
There is no more lies
There is no more pain
There is only a road
This road stretches on into the night
It is brave and it is daunting
Can you see now?
It's time to go
It's time to let go of the past
Not take it with me
For it was not so bad
The world puts expectations on me
I fear I will let them down
Yet I feel it
I feel like something is different
Like something needs to change
The clock keeps ticking
The clock keeps marking the passage of time
The passing of each moment
Sweeping everything away
It's time to be alone for now
It's time to go
Out there
The screams of hell aren't far away
They sing to us
The empty desolate vast space that is Middle America
I feel like an outlaw
I'm smoking rings into the sky
Embracing the cold of November
I whisper
More silent than the night
"Only the good die young"
The carelessness of this life
Makes me a man
I'm sorry mom
That dad hurt you
That is why I'm running away from this town
Those voices of hell
Why I will forget what love means
And run away
From this pain
