And there at last I see her face

An angel like presence in this abysmal place

No one else exists now, towards her I race

We fall into each other in a timeless embrace

As I devise the details of my scheme

Her lifeless countenance turns to a silent scream

No words spoken, yet I know what she means

Then darkness engulfs this nightmarish scene

Time, only time

I thought it was just time

But facing eternity

I realize that you were never mine

The roses are gone

Now there’s just thorns on the vine

I’ll walk through this alone

Knowing that you were never mine

A lifetime in ruins, all is now lost

I see no way through this mental holocaust

Facing the Wasteland, a vastness to be crossed

I’ve gained nothing yet I must pay the cost

Death would be too kind

But there is no death for me

I’m trapped inside this lie

For all eternity

Death would be too kind

But there is no death for me

I’m trapped inside this lie

For all eternity

Desert thorn

Desert thorn
