Curse Of Valentine's Day

Cannot see beyond the steel of cemetery gates 

The w****s of time buried my fairy-tale

Neath the dust of a never-coming dawn

Eternity stretching over a scarlet horizon

Darkened skies stir the sins of the dead

Awakening repetitive lies

Digging the dirt from my rotting flesh

Silence echoing rows of crumbling stone

I wander in perilous confusion

Seeking an answer to the pain

Hoping the fire in my coffin

Will burn my corpse

But still I see the poison

Converging upon my name

Is this love really the same

A Valentines day nightmare

Where the burden of a broken heart

Is the curse of shame

A loss of human dignity

Time the essence of cruelty

Centuries spent

Glimpsing hell

The children of believers

Now the crushed on passions scene
