One glimpse of faithlessness, an eternity’s sting,
The love I offered, a burden I bring.
One glimpse of faithlessness, a life's bitter fee,
The love I offered, a weight meant for me.
The love I offered, a weight I'd embrace,
How can I show the world the scars on my face?
To life, a secret I must keep tight,
How can I hide this burden from sight?
Hide from the light.
My hand in ruins, a truth I can't deny,
My hand in ruins, where my failures lie.
The love I offered, a weight I'd embrace.
When the heart's mirror shatters, all illusions break,
When the heart's mirror shatters, for goodness sake.
Love's years are fleeting, a breath to hold,
Love's years are fleeting, stories to be told.
A night of anguish, a death I must take,
A night of anguish, for sorrow's own sake.
The love I offered, a weight I'd embrace.
One glimpse of faithlessness, an eternity's sting,
The love I offered, a burden I bring.
