We die together holding pillows,
suffocating in the calm of sleep,
Our souls released from still frame insanity,
pure form heartache and wishes for breathtaking
views and carefree afternoons,
just basking in simple bliss - happy to be home.

We die together as dreams get worse,
these wasted souls spin voices round
wrapped in good intentions.
We'll sing for solace forever,
Oh, how our souls did suffer,
knowing nothing of truth,
disguising knowledge as a portrait of you.

How simply we lose
the last of all thoughts,
the worst of all lapses,
the least of all judgments
for the selfishly harvested
hatred of that which was
loved most by you.
