Youth will fail, and time will pass;
health will leave, and age will kill...

My heart is broken; my eyes full of tears.
She showed me pain and the worst of my fears...

I look back at my life,
At what it was before...

My life is hollow, empty, and vain.
Nothing is worth enduring this pain...

I went to her house just before midnight,
And when I arrived, I saw a light...

My heart, it longs to be with you.
Though all the shows of life were new...

She stand at her desk and gives us instruction
Through every verb, noun, and conjunction...

You came into my life so gentle and meek
And gave it such meaning when it looked so bleak...

If you were to feel
The pain in my heart...

My life full of pain; my heart fill with hate.
It's starting to become more than I can take...

It's already started; it's filling my soul
This evil inside will not hesitate...

I sat there and observed the rain
And saw where it left a stain...
