Till Death Do Us Part Lyrics

In bed she lies, unopened eyes, dying.
Her hand in my, flesh growing colder.
A darkened room. outside, the moon, Watching.
The hourglass counts down, time ending.

Suddenly her hands unfold,
Pulse no more, letting go.
Tears of mine fall to her cheek.
She does not stir, no more words.

Never knew the day would come when I would say
Farewell to you, my love, a last goodbye, in sorrow.
It is not a bed, but in a box you lie.
It can't be over now, forever.
Down, down, into the ground.
Under, the rose is no more.

(Countless years gone, yet I cannot forsake you,
Memories of our love, a temple decayed.
Minutes to hours, hours to years.
Seasons they change, yet wounds remain.)

Lonely night,
A broken man, a bottle,
On the floor.
Delirium, desperation from a longing for what was lost long ago.

Right before my eyes,
Is it she, an illusion?
Beckoning.
"My baby, I am waiting for thee. Awaiting where you left me."

So, out I go, into the dark, moon aglow, I ride.
Your voice, my guide. Leading me to your tomb.

*Chorus*
(Spirits guiding me on my way)
Reuniting our souls once again.
(Nothing ever may come between)
Nor the boundaries of mortality.

In the night, dancing in delight, a vision of an angel from the mist, in my sights.

Through the gates, my final destination:
The cemetery.
Stumbling through the tombs and the headstones,
I am almost there.

Now I see it, your grave,
Familiar space,
Not much longer now.
Everyday, a rose I have lain upon this sacred place.

Time to exhume your earthen tomb,
Digging.
My spade in hand,
The rain's beginning.
Beneath she sleeps,
Buried so deep, waiting.
Again, the moon above is watching.

Finally her tomb exposed,
An open hole, a sobered soul.
Empty shell in from of me, a corpse I see, remains of she.

What'd I hope to find in this heartbreaking place?
A corpse decayed, the shell you left behind, departed.
My must I remain while you have gone away?
I cannot find you, what can I do?
Oh yes... That's my purpose.
Shining... The blade in my hand.

Tracing the line, caress the vein with the knife,
Its time.
Ive made my mind,
Whole we shall be again.

*Chorus*

As the blade passes through the vein,
A warm red river flowing down my arm,
Let it drain.

*Chorus*

Cold embrace, then I see your face.
We're walking hand in hand now as you take me away.
Morning came, silence from the rain.
A coffin built for one now houses two.
Till death do us part.
