EVANESCENT



This is the end of life,
the destruction of this world,
the fainting of this life,
and the desistance of your calls

You are the sole light in this dark woods,
You are the brain in this mind,
the controller of my moods,
and the best thing I’ll ever find
Without you there is nothing more to do,
all is worthless if I lose you
Heaven and Earth will collide
without you by my side

Why do things have to end?
Why is there always a hello and a goodbye?
These are things I really cannot comprehend.
I just wish I have made you mine
