I walk through the valley of the shadow and death

And I fear no evil, I'm callous to it all

No clandestine affairs, I'm out of breath

Coerced to wander in a thick squall

Abhorring my choice, I still can't forsake

The despot inside so putrid and wry

Keep driving me crazy until I break

But there is you, whom I brought to life

The quintessence of love and zenith of pain

Entwined together in colours of gray

I've created no saviour, I've created a bane

You're unattainable, and I'm your prey

I want to embrace you, then choke your life out

To kiss you, then pierce with the sharpest knife

To make you see what I'm talking about

I want in future to call you "my wife"

Still repudiate the fact - you're not real

A phantom, an obsession, a dream

I'd rather die from harrowing ordeals

Than live a morose life scheme

You think like a child, an adult would say

But I'm not resigned to my fate

And what's the point in life if you can't live it your way?

Head straight to the light, before it's too late
