I can not speak these words of love to you,
Or leave a breadcrumb trail,
As I know for sure my heart's in two,
As sure as Love must fail.
I must pay my days of sentence,
With nobody to pay my bail,
I know that love's my penence,
As I know that Love must fail.
As I cry these tears that glisten,
I resite my woeful tale,
I pray that you will not listen,
Like I pray that Love must fail.
As I pull sweet petals off roses,
There comes a heavy hail,
I see what the storm proposses,
It proposses that love has failed.
