I've never felt so alone

I want to disappear

Find another love and home

Somewhere far away from here

The fire only makes us cold

Flying too close to the sun

My heartstrings and hope I will helplessly hold

Rewinding back to day and square one

My shadow follows me on the sidewalk

The only true friend by my side

My mouth is open but refuses to talk

Keeping a still tongue as sharp as a sword and swallowing my pride

My left hand holds a shiny silver key

Perhaps it's the ticket to your precious heart

A simple request, "Will you forever be with me?"

A simple reply, ripping my dreams and future viscously apart

I'm running around in a frigid figure eight

Ending up right back to where I was once before

Arriving to my destination only to be greeted by a locked grotesque gate

Noticing the barb wire fence and the "do not enter" sign boldly posted on your front door

The skies are showcasing their deepest and most splendid shades of gray

Our souls proudly wear a shade even grayer

Wishing for tomorrow to be a brighter and more promising day

As I helplessly send out another unanswered prayer

The ice only burns and melts our arid eyes

Shedding another toxic tear

Giving birth to despair as our bliss permanently dies

A death full of desolation and a life full of fear

I've never been so alone

Our relationship is beyond redemption and our souls we can no longer save

The fire turns to frost and our hearts perpetually turn to stone

As we spend our last moments together desolately digging each others' graves
