It came from behind-
Cloaked in compassion and help.
"Together 'till death"-
And you just died to me.
This knife in my back-
Keeps the blood from flowing free.
It's much like death-
You leaving me.

I thought it wouldn't happen-
No way there, I could see.
"Together 'till death"-
And you just died to me.

Much Like Death

Topic: LostLove

It happened tonight-
Much different than I thought it'd be.
"Together 'till death"-
And you just died to me.
This world seems much grayer-
No sun do I see-
It's much like death-
You leaving me.

It came from behind-
Cloaked in compassion and help.
"Together 'till death"-
And you just died to me.
This knife in my back-
Keeps the blood from flowing free.
It's much like death-
You leaving me.

I thought it wouldn't happen-
No way there, I could see.
"Together 'till death"-
And you just died to me.

This things much like death,
You leaving me.
