Whispered To Myself

In the dirty streets of Loreno, I saw you standing there

With the moonlight shining on your coal-black hair

With the darkness all around me, I had trouble finding words

So I'll whisper to myself and prayed you heard

Well you must have been an angel, fallen from the skies

Cause you turned me and I saw heaven in your eyes

You were promised to another who'd wed your heart one day

So you woke one night and softly slit that fate away

When I found you in the crisp dawn of morning, with bloodstains on your clothes

With your hands as tools, it was me your heart had chose

And we went to seek your forgiveness, but the red sand turns to clay

And we asked the Lord to wash your sins away

Then I lost your love forever where the river meets the land

When the swiftness swept your life out of my hands

And I swear that I could hear laughter, as the heavens shook and cracked

And I cursed the god, who in envy, took you back

My heart, it raged like the river, and my tears fell like the rain

And I found myself alone in darkness, once again
