He's darker than night
Ice cold to the touch,
Yet I never fight
His memory I clutch

It's killing my spirit
I must use my lore
Come now, let's here it
Why shouldn't I close the door?

You burned my desire
Right down to the core
This bitter fire
I don't need anymore

You've estranged
me from the rest of your life
I've changed
A lot so goodbye strife
