Losing you punches as hard as death

Not glancing over at that innocence wrought

In depths of amethyst among stars born from naught

Where forgiveness and love breathe the same breath

...

Don't look away from me, partner, don't look away

Don't stumble into that maw of darkness; don't slip

Don't let me go or give up hope; Don't you dare trip

Don't fall into those pits of hell locked from the rays of day

...

Watching you fade away in front of my very eyes

Smiling as if you just now remembered what saving me would cost

I'm supposed to be the one protecting you, but now you're lost

Leaving me with a haunting memory of regretless violet…your demise

...

Speak to me, shadows! Speak and then leave me be!

My heart has forgotten how to beat

My soul ripped in half by my hands, kicked with my feet

I may blink, but without you, I may never see

...

A nightmare morphed into the thick of gravity

This coldness makes the shivers worse that before

I don't know if I'm alive anymore

Guilt gnaws at my spirit, reminding me of reality

...

Gone…you're gone…no…it should have been me cloaked in red

My only evil banished my only light

Subjected him to torture and the claws of fright

Now that you're smile falters, I blink in pure dread

...

The tears come silent and soft, kissing my cheeks for want of a well

As they fall, down, down, down this face of hate

I am the darkest of the dark, for I was too late

Too late to save my light…I saw you…farewell
