A song I wrote. At least the lyrics. Of course I retain all rights to it :) Let me know what you think.

Token

My thoughts are demented,
These memories are cemented,
I can’t let go,
of the love that transcended.
My weary body,
Can’t take any more,
My heart can never be,
Fixed or mended.
Chorus:
I watched you slip away,
Fading into the abyss,
So much is lost, I’m left,
With eternity to miss.
Take me now,
I’m bare and broken,
Send the ship,
My life, my token.
I cried with you,
I tried to do,
All I could,
to ease the pain you knew.
I died in vain,
I am to blame,
Now I have no one,
To keep me sane.
(Chorus)
Misery is my company,
But I refuse to share,
All I am,
Continues to tear.
I can take no more,
Of this ware,
All I’ve lost,
Is all that I care.
Battered and Bruised,
Chess pieces are used,
In this game I wait,
I hope you’re amused.
I hope you’re amused.
I hope you’re amused
