Ringed around your soul
Like a pocket full of dust
I see your ashen face
Through your fallen heart
You played your wicked game
Left me here to crumble
Now I’ll fade away
To look for a new day
So much I gave you
Too much your greedy hands took
One life for yours
Why were you so selfish?
I can’t coup with this
I won’t deal with this
I can only go to hell
For I have made the ultimate sin for you
And you left me with a hole
Too big to be filled
Ring around my nightmares
Like a pocket filled with sorrow
Ashes to ashes
I have fallen down…
