Love's Curse
I thought I was strong
I thought I was tough
Yet no one prepared me for unrequited love
You tore my heart out
Deceived me and lied
Made me cry far into the night
And what really hurts
Is that you never knew
Never knew of the love I kept so well hidden
You didn't mean to
Didn't know of my burdens
Otherwise you'd have been there
I was tired of it all
Tired of the hurt
Tired of the jeers in the hall
I guess that's why I did it
I took your picture
And ran into the woods
You found me later
All covered in blood
Your picture beside me in the mud
Then you shed tears on my behalf
While I watched from above
I was gone and you couldn't undo that
You felt responsible and full of regret
Said you had really loved me
And that you'd die to be with me
But just before you plunged the knife into your chest
I stopped you and forgave
For I saw you had really cared
You couldn't see me
Yet you heard the last thing I said
As I danced my way to heaven.
"Live for me...for I loved you and always will..."
