love is a tragedy.

I'm afraid to close my eye's,
For all that I see,
Is just another cold ,
fragmented memory,

I'm afraid to listen,
For all that I hear,
are words of Malice,
When you are near,

Wash the pain away ,
Remove the internal stain,
Nothing but empty-handed profanity,

Don't delay my sanity,

Love is a tragedy,

I'm afraid to close my eye's,
For all that I see,
Are empty memories of you and me,

I cast them out ,
No more tears to cry,
For you another,
Fish to fry,

I'm afraid to listen,
For all that I hear,
Is the viciousness laughing,
Loud and clear,

I cast you out,
But you draw near,
I'll never escape,

To me that is clear
Don't delay my agony,

Love is a tragedy,

I'm afraid to close my eye's,
For all that I see,
Is just another cold ,
fragmented memory,

I'm afraid to listen,
For all that I hear,
are words of Malice,
When you are near,

Wash the pain away ,
Remove the internal stain,
Nothing but empty-handed profanity,

Don't delay my sanity,

Love is a tragedy,
I'll never escape.
