PARADISE LOST

a heaviness rests behind my eyeballs

it slinks and wallows, settles there

my head, my heart's been torn asunder

caught up in love's most evil snare

paradise lost, your treasure's found

but not in my collected gaze

paradise regained, your love is sound

and I'm left wandering in this maze

a strange sad thing, love when it dies

it binds and keeps you till the end

i go down now to my demise

won't you help, some godspeed send?

paradise lost, our shelter no more

but not in the shadow of my heart

paradise regained, the storm is o'er

death won't for we are already part
