Let this be over, let it end
All this torture I can’t withstand
I’m begging you to let me be
I’m pleading for you to set me free
Cut these strings that bind me here
That are made of pain and fear
Release these chains that hold me down
Or in this sorrow I might drown
Cold seeps in as she closes her eyes
And all around her the darkness tries
To erase the pain and agony
That she has been caused so callously
But all her wounds, even time can’t heal
All of her sorrow the world can feel
His words slice through her like a blade
Letting her feel the price she’s paid
The cold steel cuts deep into her soul
And agony within becomes whole
Her hope pours out and fades away
With weakened heart she starts to sway
A final stab spoken from his lips
And into darkness she slowly slips
Broken and beaten, she tries to regain
Balance within she struggles to maintain
She stumbles and falls along this path
Trying to outrun all of Fate’s wrath
But her wounds too many for time to heal
The pain so deep that it’s all she can feel
In agony she falls one last time
She has no strength left to make that climb
She’d rather be numb than feel the pain
And never feel the cold of the rain
From all of the storms that are yet to come
That do their best to make her succumb
So within her heart a vortex forms
And it will consume as it transforms
This heart once on fire to solid ice
But this new future will not suffice
To give up the pain she gives much more
All the happiness that was in store
She savors the misery
All the pain and agony
Washing over her like the rain
And knowing this is her domain
Ruling with her jaded heart
None can make her fall apart
She will stand strong despite them all
Never succumbing to love’s fall
