River of Styx

PART I -Death-

Throwing myself head over heels
Why am I now the one who steals?
The wounds I caused will never heal
Pour my heart to show how I feel

Guilt takes over my mind
Your love and trust I can't find
Nonstop falling, I'm so blind
The pain pulses through my spine

My eyes fade to white
Theres no turning back tonight
I have lost all sight
Deaths only an endless night

I wanted to always be with you
If only I could have been true
There is nothing left I can do
I did all this to...

PART II -Remembering-

I became so close to you
It killed me to breathe you in
I knew this would have a tragic ending
I became consumed in sin

Everything went wrong
I became the darkness in your light
This never should have happened
I had to end the fight

We saw each other one last time
The final hugs and the farewell kiss
We cried together all day long
You are the one I will always miss...

PART III -Gates-

I'm waiting for you now at the gates
There is no turning back
I thought they were live and golden
But they are dead and black

I thought this was heaven
No, this is hell
Will I ever see you again?
No one could ever tell...

PART IV -Drowning-

The fear takes over
Did you die too?
I jump in the river
To come see you

I must see you in Heaven
I'm getting so close to see you there
My will gives up
I run out of air

I slip under the surface
My lungs fill with water and sand
I thought it was all over
Then I see a hand...

PART V -Reunion-

The river's surface breaks
The hand pulls me out
Covered in water and misery
I learn what love is really about

We look each other in the eyes
We cry together, is everything fixed?
Lying together, loving each other
On this boat on the River of Styx
