Soft Moonlight

by Stef   Apr 5, 2005


Bleeding in the soft moonlight, holding on to your hand
But it’s feeling a bit lifeless, and you make no effort to stand.
I’m scared that the time has passed, and I’ll be the last to go
I showed up way too late, and there’s so much you’ll never know.

I can feel my own grip loosen, and I know it’s nearly time
I only wish I’d had the opportunity to hear you say you’re mine
But all in all it was just great, and I know this is my last chance
To take a look at our beautifully deadly, less-than-perfect romance.

We made it through the bad times, but only by slicing up our skins
We thought that after every battle, there’d only be one more to win
But we fought and fought and it never ended, so here we are tonight
I think that is was meant to be this way, for this moment feels so right.

I fall beside you on the floor, you hand slipping away from my own
I wish that I could hold you close, but I guess it’s better we’re both alone
I feel the need to cry, but instead I just force a smile upon my face
I’d rather hear silence then my cries echoing in this empty, lonely place.

With one more glance at the blood surrounding you, I look at my wrists
With all the strength left in me, I lean over and give you one last kiss
I know you can’t hear me, but you still seem alive in the soft moonlight
So I tell you that I love you, and I’m glad I died here, with you, tonight.
