Two lovers wanting to escape the cruel world through death.. but something goes wrong. R&R
Single Double Suicide

Restless cries so fill my lung
Lived so long, yet died so young
Dead is all I am to you
A shadow in the sea of blue
Salty water 'pon my blind eyes
As my love for you slowly dies
With my heart -- I fell away
Without your love, my final day
You held me close, I thought it was true
We'd die together but I died for you
Hand in hand upon that ledge
I trembled and stepped toward the edge
Your beautiful whisper in my ear
"Don't fear, my love, I am right here."
The time had come, we would be free
Delivering us from our misery
But I feel somehow wrong
Was this right all along?
My hand is cold, free from your grip
I see your face, my heart did rip
But now, I fear, it is too late
You, my love, have set my fate
Together for eternity
That is where you lied to me!
Your crushing words echo through my head
"So much to live for," is what you said
I fell alone without you there
Died alone, you didn't care...
