Love To Ashes, Love Arises

There was a time when everything was dark In my life, and i was a man who had nothing To live for, until i met you Everything just reversed itself, it changed my life completely I felt compelled to do every little thing for you I could never say no to anything you said, and I could never tell you that you couldn't do this Or that, and everything was wonderful, peaceful And nothing felt like it could tear us apart We were invincible, a wall of hard rock that could Never be carved into, and never be broken The love we made was so pure that it shot me away Into a world of pleasure, its beautiful aroma sent shivers down My spine as we constantly sent our vibes of love through each other All was right and all was well, there was nothing that Could stop me from loving you, and well I was wrong to think that when i saw you with that Other man, and my heart sunk to the floor The tears from my eyes felt like acid upon my cheeks Burning my flesh and destroying my soul Ripping apart every bit i love i ever had for you I could never imagine this happening, and yet Right in front of my eyes there it was, and i couldn't help But shriek in emotional pain and run to you Screaming in your face i asked for an Explanation for this horror i saw before me I cried so much, i could've dehydrated from the tears And with the same grief inside she broke down in front Of me, and one part of me wanted to take you outside And console you, and calmly ask you, so that None of this broke out to a point where one of us Might die And another part of me wanted to take you by the neck And tear your appendages apart till all that was left Was a lifeless corpse, squirming on the floor till It collapsed and died in front of me But that, i thought to myself, would be just sick And i erased it from my brain She apologized, a million times i thought And my love took over again I felt the love to forgive her, despite the Blackened sting inside from that vision Of her with that stranger Now, together again, i see this light shining from our Bodies joined together hand in hand It was oh so true, nothing could stop us Nothing in the world could break us Tear us apart, and crush us We were invulnerable to anything We were one
