Hopeless Pleading

Down
, inside the trenches we sit alone,
Fire's out, its dark and cold,
There's nothing left to say,

Deep, deep inside we get along,
But the love is gone and its still too long
Before we can get away,

Your strawberry eyes of grey,
They stare right through me, and I pray,
My heart won't give me away,

Hey, I can do the same to you too,
My eyes have black and red stones sewn on to look through
Your spirit ascends away...

Your lips, they move to form unspoken words,
I brace myself in case it hurts
Too much for me to leave,

What comes, shocks me and strikes beneath,
This hoodwinked soul makes it hard to breath,
Do you really mean it, do you love me?

Its asking too much, I know,
But give me this one chance to show
That you were wrong and I was the most wicked of them all,

Damn, you didnt have to die for me,
We both ended up in the trench beneath
This twisted reality,

Its so much prettier in the dark,
Our faithless lives are torn apart,
But in the dark, they bleed beautifully,

Its funny, I remember a deep emotion like that,
I only had it for an instant,
But I know your eyes when I see them,
Just give me another chance to steal them,

I know that making up is hard to do,
But who was the one who put you through all of this?

No, no dont you dare blame me,
I was ready to give it all to free
You and me together again,
Together again,

Dont you like the sound of that?
Its a life we can know all too well, together,
Together again,
