Stronger than Love

by Katie Silva   Aug 9, 2004


I rest upon a broken tree
and try to go to sleep
but the devil taunts and speaks to me
of your soul that he will keep

How did it come to this?
our love was always true
But a power stronger than love
Had began taking hold of you

Now it makes its way towards me
It is now my own to bear
The anguish you endured
And all of this despair

I don't care about the sound of pain
screaming in my ear
Nothing matters anymore
Now that you're not here

It reaches me but i don't fight it
I wont struggle away from pain
It finally takes hold of me
In the darkness i will remain

    I wonder what power took hold of this person? Did you mean power as in w/e the dark forces, satan, so on and so forth; or did you mean it as a specific vice or sin? Mysterious!
