My Lament to the Stars
Damn these eyes that will not weep when I need release!
Damn this mind which always thinks and robs me of my peace!
Damn these lips for not speaking what truly must be spoken!
Damn this heart for beating even after it has broken!
Damn these arms for reaching t'ward what isn't mine to be taken!
Damn my longing and my dreams which refuse to be forsaken!
There was once a time that I was saved from my fate by the greatest kind of light.
Yet now I feel, so true and real, it's best I died that night!
Yet live on I shall, forevermore, just waiting for the day-
That Peace and Love or Pain of Death will someday come my way.
Damn this mind which always thinks and robs me of my peace!
Damn these lips for not speaking what truly must be spoken!
Damn this heart for beating even after it has broken!
Damn these arms for reaching t'ward what isn't mine to be taken!
Damn my longing and my dreams which refuse to be forsaken!
There was once a time that I was saved from my fate by the greatest kind of light.
Yet now I feel, so true and real, it's best I died that night!
Yet live on I shall, forevermore, just waiting for the day-
That Peace and Love or Pain of Death will someday come my way.
