A Baptism Of Tears.

It’s a hell of my own making

In this limbo without love

Cause you chose to be forsaking

all that we were dreaming of.

My soul has shrunk to nothing

it holds nothing without you

you’ve become my fallen angel

…left me hanging in the blues.

All my days are purgatory

Punished for the things I’ve done

It’s an age old endless story,

And my tortures just begun…..

Like a wraith you haunt me daily

In each place that we once shared

Girl I think I’m going crazy

Sensing you when you’re not there….

Chorus~

I’m a prisoner in Hades

Trapped by love that’s turned obscene,

Your last words were so degrading

Poison from my demon queen,

Flames and brimstone would be better

Then this pain of losing you,

But I fear nothing can save me

Cause I chose to be untrue.

Darkness closes all around me

Loneliness can share no light

As I wander like a blind man

underneath the bright sunlight.

In my king-sized bed that offers

Emptiness that holds no queen,

Just your faint perfume that lingers

in the wee hours when I scream….

Shadows mar the walls around me

Miming passion we once shared,

As I relive what confounds me

Why’d I have that damned affair.

But it’s too late to be sorry

Cause your not here to forgive

I’ve become your specter’s quarry

For as long as I will live……

You slit your wrist in an angry twist

Cutting deeply through each vein,

from our bathtubs steamy waters

In your baptism of pain,

Then you slipped below

the scarlet depths,

leaving me to bear the blame,

for my selfish lust

turning love to rust

that would vanish down the drain….

It’s a hell of my own making

In this limbo without love

Cause you chose to be forsaking

all that we were dreaming of.

My soul has shrunk to nothing

it holds nothing without you

you’ve become my fallen angel

…left me hanging in the blues.

All my days are purgatory

Punished for the things I’ve done

It’s an age old endless story,

And my tortures just begun…..

Like a wraith you haunt me daily

In each place that we once shared

Girl I think I’m going crazy

Sensing you when you’re not there….
