Why does your touch feel divine?
I thought only death could give such pain,
The heart burns each day, yet beats just fine,
Come extinguish this fire, be my rain

Why are these nights so dark, so cold?
Your presence lingers, long after you are gone,
I ache for your hand in mine to hold,
Come ignite the void, herald my dawn

Is keeping us apart a plan of the Sadist?
Or is He nursing a hidden grudge?
If yes, I'm ready now for the grand plot twist
Come deliver me justice, stand as my judge

My lying words have scarred my tongue
These wounds still beg for mercy's balm
Your breath soothes where sorrow has stung
Come give me absolution, be my psalm

Without you a second feels like a year,
Do I deserve such cruel privation?
From you so far, even when near?
Come carry me out of hell, grant my salvation

This longing doesn't lie quiet for long,
I have to chain it tight and watch it suffocate
How much longer can I be this strong?
Come and unbind it, realise our fate

Our love is banished into dreams,
This waking life a bleak nightmare
Yet I again wake to your fleeting gleams,
Come and torment me, become my despair

Shamelessly and again I reach out,
Even when you return only silence,
I'm tired, alone and burnt out,
Come part your lips, speak my repentance

No matter the distance, no matter the years,
My soul will carry your memory each day
Burdened by sorrow, drowning in tears,
I will reach the end alone, show me the way.
