Forever With You

Angel I met you at the ring of the bell
walkin' the precipice, this side of hell
and as I recall, ya know I never could tell
just whether you saved me or whether I fell

'cause when I'm with you, I don't wanna eat, sleep, or draw in breath
'cause I'm trapped inbetween certain life and an uncertain cause of death

put the rose in the water, it'll drink till it dies
I'm locked out of the room, where a little girl cries
and the gold chain lies broken under sapphire skies
where you won't find any frogs, and no eagle flies

and all I know is you won't let me touch you until you get high
tell me when did you decide in your mind, somewhere along the line, to switch sides

and so you want me to be completely honest with you...
I feel every ounce of pain that you go through

I'm resigned to my fate as Leiland takes me away
from where the bent curtain rods and the tear-soaked flannel lay
and the packers they carry fudge up from the depths of dismay
thinking if I go back, how long will I stay?

so just do me a favor, don't send me anymore of those stupid emails
'cause it all ends with a stomach tear and bitten fingernails

I see Adam's face, I'm full of bulletholes too
here comes the lord of the land, ya know the rent is due
and ya know there ain't nothin' baby that I wouldn't go through
if I knew I'd spend forever, forever with you

and my spirit will shake, for what I know will always come to pass
when I look in your eyes will I know that our love will always last?

and so I will be completely honest with you...
I want to take every ounce of pain from you
