Mary Elizabeth McGlynn "Love Psalm"

 

Oh, this isn't the life that I dreamed it could be

I'm staring into the eyes of the shell left of me

And now every decision I make

The good, the pleasure and the pain

Could simply all be erased if I choose it to be

 

This nightmare unfolds like a rose that awakes to the spring

Oh, it's so close to the sanity I'm trying to cling to

I'm tearing out the pages 'cause it hurts

To be forced to feel the heart's break

How much of this torture can I take?

Is it not worth the risk to create just one more try?

I know that I can fix it

 

If you could rewrite our life any way that you please

Would you tear out the pages of our memories?

Would you take back the pain and all the hurt we create?

Or could you be satisfied with the love that you made with me?

 

If you could rewrite our life any way that you please

Would you tear out the pages of our memories?

Would you take back the pain and all the hurt we create?

Or could you be satisfied with the promise you made?

 

And so we rewrite our life, but it's not what we've made

In the chaos we dance as we stand unafraid

Always one change away from making ourselves complete

The world will perish in flames

And I'll watch as you fade from me.
