Moonlight's Tears

Moonlight's tears below the sky

Black as his heart and cold as his love

I whisper to the angels crying above

The angels crying for his eternal damnation

The angels praying for his soul's release

I whisper to them

Beg for the beauty of a miracle

To bring him light and warmth again

Bring him life

And as I beg for him

I beg for me

For our lives no longer separate

But twined in a single ribbon of ebony silk

Woven together, so inescapable

He has dragged me into darkness

Half of what is my own is yet his

Without him I am torn in two

Half a soul

Eating and sleeping-they are optional to me

As I search for half of my soul

Half of my heart

And the whole of my life

My tears mix with the moon's

The white crescent burning eerily above

Offering him a chance

A chance to die tonight

And he will

My heart, my life stands before me

His soul will release tonight

As we stand beneath the moonlight's tears

He will die in life or die in death, but either prayer,

My life will die tonight.
