You lie, silent there before me.
Your tears, they mean nothing to me.
The wind, howling at the window.
The life, you never gave,
I give to you...
...Really don't deserve this,
but now there's nothing you can do.
So sleep in your only memory of me,
Dearest lover...
A poisonous shroud; silencing mist of decay. Tears of ages past, cold. A home long forgotten, long abandoned in grief. A life deserved, a life taken, and a life lost. The desire to give for nothing, and take everything. To save him. Everything to save him, though there is nothing left. Eternal sleep to no avail, a pain still throbbing. Where are you now?
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes, good-bye.
It was always you that I despised.
I don't feel enough for you to cry, oh well.
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes, good-bye
Goodbye. Goodbye.
Can't let you sleep, song still reaching. Hate and love; no difference, right? Felt too much, still crying; words are less important then actions. Be in peace, no matter where. Why must there be goodbyes?
So insignificant,
something sleeping dormant deep inside of me.
Are you hiding away lust?
Under the stars, maybe flying high, in the clouds.
Perhaps you're happy without me?
So many seeds have been sown,
and who could sprout up so blessedly.
If I had died...I would never have known.
I would have never felt sad at all.
You will not hear me say, "I'm sorry"
Where is the light?
I wonder if it's sleeping somewhere?
Everything and nothing; it isn't what it appears. The monster and light that dwells within; one in the same, a perfect conflict. Something for only one, long turned to dust. Here, there, somewhere unreachable; it doesn't matter. No halves without wholes; the sorrow of being broken. All the actions that have been tried; every possibility sought. All thing things that never came to pass; impossible to count. Maybe to die, to join, to survive and learn; which one? Emptiness worth half-life; it can't be? The words can't reach now; uttered every breath. The sun never reaches here; no warmth of touch. Surely the world will wake; sleep forever.
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes, good-bye.
It was always you that I despised.
I don't feel enough for you to cry, oh well.
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes. Good-bye.
Don't leave just yet; goodbyes can't be said. The words said were empty; meant they were not. Crying forever with no end; doomed to repeat. Songs for you and the winds.
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes, good-bye.
It was always you that I despised.
I don't feel enough for you to cry, oh well.
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes. Good-bye.
Good-bye. Good-bye. Good-bye. Good-bye.
To stay here; singing melancholy melody for you. Words surely had to have been meant. If forgotten, the tears will end. No farewell will give peace; nothing to be forgotten. Words echo; completely empty.
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes, good-bye.
It was always you that I despised.
I don't feel enough for you to cry, oh well.
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes. Good-bye.
To wait here; will you rise again? Say the words back; give them strength again. Tears together, tears apart; felt with one heart. Peace for you, torments left behind; the song won't end.
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes, good-bye.
It was always you that I despised.
I don't feel enough for you to cry, oh well.
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes. Good-bye.
Good-bye. Good-bye. Good-bye. Good-bye.
Fated here; no way out. Hated for action and consequence; staying for love. Let it be forgotten; sleep the tears away, emotions draining off. A song only for you; never for another. Here one piece will lament the other; never say goodbye.
Don't leave me.
Edited for Context version.
Suggested at lower volume settings. Alternatively suggested italicized portions be read as if the speaker was either insane or absent-minded, with tones of breathiness and constricted airways, ie. extended crying. Written much like the diary of the distracted, fragments of thoughts never completed for good reason. Interpret at your own risk.
