You caused my flaming love to turn cold,
And that same cold has been filling my body
Ever since I realized the horrible truth
That you never did love me.
I tried to build you mountains,
Tried to give you the heavens, and take you to the stars.
The truth is, you were my everything,
But you just laughed with him as I fell apart.
Now, I'm on my knees with blood dripping from my wrist.
A single cut to take me from the truth so wretched
This one escape, I couldn't resist,
But still your smile in my heart stays forever etched.
Suddenly, Death walks in, letting out a sigh
He picked me up, and a word of comfort he did send,
"That's the terrible truth of love and life;
They both come to an end."
