The Angel of Mercy (For I Appose)

You can’t tell me you don’t love me,
because we haven’t talked since that day.
I am stuck here trying to survive,
stuck here trying to survive, but I am lost,
lost in trying to buffer these illusions of the back when.
My mind is still shaking
My mind is still shaking, shaking with these lost possibilities,
these lost possibilities, but I just
but I just , let it all fade away.



I still ask if we could be friends,
while I still feel like this?
I want to ask how I went wrong,
because I can never call it quits.



I keep walking down this forsaken street,
hoping that one day soon we might meet.
Meet standing right here,
Meet standing right here, from the place that I right this
on the side of the road, with the view of the graveyard
but I know it is just one of my mind’s woes,
one of my mind’s woes, for I appose
for I seem to appose, my own sanity
and I keep thinking,
and I keep thinking, thinking that maybe over the next horizon,
but no longer can I find the strength
can I find the strength, the strength I need to go on.



I guess I know we can’t be friends,
not after the time I spent being obsessed.
I will never regret having let you in,
but I regret how long I took to confess.



Take me home
