About life, about love, about hatred and rage

The beginning...
Under the dismal black veil of night
I wanter and ponder as a lonely man might
About life, about love, about hatred and rage
About all that stays and changes with age

The reaper...
When i fell apart, you held me together
You said that our friendship would last forever
My hope for a future and the trust in myself
Has joined you in the grave where you placed yourself

The angel...
My life is tragedy i picked up without knowledge
Its a quest for love and for you to acknowledge
The meaningless life that for you I have pledged
And the times that my mind has been over the edge

I stood at the pit that bore your gorgeous name
I wanted your love so i took the leap of shame
Falling for so long in the deep pit of love
Has made me lose faith in the god up above

The pain and the sorrow, the blood and the tears
Caused by my love, my worries and fears
My futile attempts to keep you from harm
The love that has slashed your name on my arm

One cant feel pleasure unless they feel pain
So you bring me joy which i can't contain
If this tragedy has an ending let it be mine
I'd snuff my candle to brighten your shine

The lover...
Falling deeply for you was definitely not hard
You had me believe i could let down my guard
The two sweetest weeks that my heart had known
Then the most hurtful period of being alone

I long for you now though many months past
Your smile in my direction is one i wish would last
Dreams are all they are for i don't have a chance
To hold you in my arms in a state of sweet romance

The friend...
So similar yet so different, the joy you bring is pure
Your words of wise wisdom often provide the cure
When my angel has left me crying you wipe away the tears
You hold me in your arms and love away my fear

The last straw...
My hands on my chest to feel what you've broken
Though you weren't the first to say what you've spoken
You weren't the first though there will be no more
I can no longer continue to strike what is sore

The ending...
The changes the remnants of ages long past
Have cause malicious torment which hell cannot surpass
With help from an angel and an army of friends
I have avoided a fate of self-inflicted ends
