Forsake Me

beware, darling, don't catch my eyes -
no fire in them no trust
betray my soul you got too high
in some forgone indefinite past

can winds of winter dispel may name
from whispers upon your lips?
so I will rove wherefrom I came
still hanging on to what I've missed

hey-hey-forsake me
who loved me ever!
why's so damned thorny
the way to heaven?
angels die glowing,
demons take theirs
we both felt so lonely
and cold upstairs

so down I fell from brittle sky
to stony lands of pain
forget me dear, unleash, untie
just let me walk my lane

my creepy shadow, dearest friend,
swigs whisky in empty bars
a-chasing memories from farmost strand
of seas that craddle your stars


hey-hey-forsake me
who loved me ever!
why's so damned thorny
the way to heaven?
angels die glowing,
demons take theirs
we both felt so lonely
and cold upstairs
