I\'m sitting under
This dark, dreary bridge
My mind slowly wanders
My sanity lingers on the ridge
It was raining cats and dogs
And there\'s nobody around
Are you out there in the fog?
Or are you nowhere to be found?
A single car above passes me by
The water\'s quietly streaming
Tears running down my naked eye
While the mid-autumn moon comes peering
The ghastly gray goes unnoticed
As my thoughts are focused on you
I still contemplate your motives
And still I have no clue
The gnarled trees around twisted in agony
A resemblance of my heart\'s dismay
The nocturnal beasts call out in cackled cacophony
Like a demons perverting God\'s sanctuary
My thoughts run wild as scenes flash and disappear
Things are going on in an apparent blur
One minute we are making love on a makeshift bed
The next my stained hands are upon a kitchen blade
I raise my palms towards me
Tainted blood screaming for justice
Upon the brook\'s reflection that I see
Skeletal hands reaching out in an asymmetrical lattice
Try as I might but I can\'t rinse off
The phantom blood stays on like cold, hardened broth
Murder keeps being mumbled on the lipless skulls
I swear at that moment I\'d rather agree to swallowing a bowl of bile
Friction causes my skin to raw and pink
By then fatigue overtakes my mind gone crazed
Even before five exhausted blinks
I find myself once more at your place
Your smile is one that I\'ll never forget
Those pearly whites in their perfect set
Those olive eyes so evident in the evening sun
Even the haughtiest lady would feel awe-stricken, so stunned
Curly russet tresses over a James Dean face
Carelessly shaven appearance that I long to embrace
Daily thirty laps at your swimming pool
Maintains a nice, lean physique that most women would drool
But now you are here, you\'re simply mine
After we partake our burgundy wine
You press your lips against my own
But suddenly there\'s the ringing of the phone
A quiet apology you, retreat to your guest room
The darkness around silently looms
Outside the window goes a gentle drizzling
Not before long lightning flashes with thunder booming
Patiently I tuck my arms around my knees
Watching the storm ravage the now-thrashing trees
Time passes and I finally tire and slip off in my gown
Towards the spiral staircase I silently went down
The door to your guest room was slightly ajar
Curious I decided against calling you
I didn\'t have to get really far
Neither could I believe my eyes so true
In your arms you were embracing another
Immediately my heart was torn asunder
I was so hurt that I just can\'t explain
All I remember was practically going insane
A scene from hell, when it broke loose
I tore at him, lashing out and crying out
He was hanging by the thread on the hangman\'s noose
Before you could even shout
I felt no fear and only anger tore through
My heart. now only remorse in me remains true
Because grief is only for the very weak
He didn\'t have to go, his place I now seek
In truth hell would be a better place
Barely alive and already dead inside
Even the coarsest recoil from my face
It won\'t be long before I join the devil\'s side
But before I leave and throw every shred
Of sanity away I want you to know that I had
Everything with you in my arms.
I loved you and never though it would bring you harm.
