here you are
lying in my arms
rest gently now,
for love you went so far...
your blood soaks deep
into the earth beneath us,
blending with my tears
tears i cry for my love of you
but you didn't care
didn't care what you'd put me through
your wrists you cut
long and deep
blood spills thicker
as i weep
weep for you...
you were lost from the start
you loved her so much
but it was her you could never clutch
so bleed you do
and i'm here for you
we both know you're gone,
know there's no more hope
but this is what you want
and for it your memory will haunt
me...day and night
dark or light
how i will miss you
but i will live for you
be strong for you...
because now i'm all that’s left
you tried your best
you just couldn't do it
not having the strength to go on...
and now you are gone.
here you are
lying in my arms
rest gently now,
for love you went so far...
