lyrics

I waited…
I waited for hours, days, months,
And my love never came back
My whole world was under attack!

I scrambled to find any meaning in life
I was sure of my future – sure she’d be my wife
And then everything came crashing down

I’d tell you I went insane,
But that’d only be the half of it
I felt like half of me had been torn off and done with

All my desires, all my pleasures,
All the innermost happiness of my soul
Gone

In the heat of everything, my mind was racing:
“If your happiness is over, perhaps you should take to erasing
The happiness from every other soul around
Start with your ‘wife’ and spread the love around

“If joy is an empty pursuit
Maybe terror will thrill your soul
If you’re going to hell,
Might as well drag the whole world down the hole”

And so my psychotic vengeance began…
