The Killjoy |
To know love is to ache; |
hurt yourself and repent |
For in the end all is gone; |
lights go out, your time is spent |
If I were you I would retract and lock my heart |
Concede defeat and admit I was off the mark |
If I were you I would turn away and hide my face |
Swallow my pride and then finish ere it’s all disgrace |
All of our dreams now laid on the sand |
To wait by the perilous tides |
To be washed away into the depths |
And sink without a trace |
Just a fool’s hope remains |
To rejoice is to lapse; |
fool yourself and repent |
Mirth will soon turn into woe, |
reveries to contempt |
If I were you I would now bring the curtain down |
Accept my lot and thus fathom out my own bounds |
If I were you I would rue the day when I was born |
Cleanse all in life and redeem myself from scorn |
Remember these words when tide is turning |
The less you hope for, the less you suffer |
If you dare to trust, then you shall shatter |
Lunge from the heights and fall to smithereens |
And when you come here with charred wings and a defiled heart |
Wait not for compassion or words of consolation |
For only a gleeful smile is greeting you |
