Want To Believe

Through long gone years
Beyond the rim of real
I’m always here
For you to be near

I was with you when none could be
Guarding your sleep
Taking all nightmares away
I was there for you, by your side
Guiding you to the light
Believing one day
You will remember me

Paths went too far
Writing both souls apart
Just once to make them entwine
Yours and mine

One call to rewrite the destiny
Or it’s but another coil of fate
The one to trust and believe
I was loyal and naïve to face
The real was never what it seemed

One night changed it all
I was there for you but for what?
To feel how blood turns ice cold
Betrayal in this sick smile
And years of trust turn into fake masquerade
Veiled still rotten grace upon rusting façade
I called your name
But there was only pain

That madness in eyes
Like the devil inside
Yet so vulnerable, afraid
If I could just say
What happened to you through years

Long months now passed
And you are kneeling silently weeping
I see now your heart
And want to believe it’s real
I want to believe you’re now alright

I want to believe that you are now real
That there is no game and it’s just like once
When there were only two of us
In our own world just you and me
