Despite all the things we've been through
Together as allies and friends
I cannot stay
Forever by your side (as I had always wished)
I won't. I can't
Be the one that makes you slip
And fall
Simply for my benefit

To watch your ethereal glow
Fade away and disappear
To look upon your sky blue eyes
as they turn a stormy grey.
You'd be with me, yes, but never quite the same

No more "Really dear" or
"Demon dear" or anything like that.
Who will calm me when I have
one of my dramatic fits?
Who will dine and chat with me
for hours at the Ritz?

--------------------------------------------------------------------
I can't. I won't
Be the one who makes you trip
And fall to my level
Down
Where you don't belong

I slide on my glasses
So as to block out your face
So hurt and confused
Innocent and feeling used
I know you don't understand

And that face
So pure and white
Will haunt my dreams
Until the end of time

-------------------------------------------------------------------
But to keep that face
So free of sin
I had to go away.
But that face
Will haunt my dreams
Until the end of days

With angels righteous, true, and strong -
Tainted ones aren't meant to play
And so your face will always taunt me
That is, until
The earths last day.
