Another Foot To Shovel

A torrid kiss ignites the flame

With these swollen hearts the fires will rage

A scar from the past sends icy rains

The warmth of love will turn healing to pain

Past scars. Jaded.

Dig away, scrape the pain

Another foot to the shovel

Bleed these wounds and drink the cup

Honor the oath two souls as one

Will we be forgiven?

This won't come easy

We fought for this in the past

Jaded and hopeless

We let it fall through the cracks

Hatred now heats the blade

It divides and it cuts

You gave in and I gave up

Through glares of disgust

Jaded

The first time was the last time

How could it get this far?

Why did it come to this?

My heart's been ripped apart

Torn by your poisoned lips

How could it get this far?

Why did it come to this?

Our souls are ripped apart

The wounds of love forget the oath

Bitterness the soil, resentment the stone

A grave of shallows filled with her bones

Buried my heartache, buried my hope

My soul now dies with her down in that hole
