There I stood
beneith the coal sun
side by side with you
silence was the music in our hearts
and the promise was made
as our blood mixed together

you felt what i felt
and you suffered with me
but as time tredded on
you wished to be free

out eyes never met
and our thoughts were apart
and slowly you drifted
away from my heart

wishing and waiting
i watched out the window
searching for some sign 
of you presence

but my bones broke
under the promise you made
the lies you told
made it harder to see
that you left me alone.

in the black pool of blindness
i search for a door
that will free me from
the memories of you
