lyrics

Lifeless eyes washed in pale blue light
As I beg of them won’t you please take my life
When pain and pleasure meet, my fear presides within
And I watch their hooks and chains dig into my skin
Angels appear as demons and await their summoning
If I can’t have you back is it a waste of suffering?

Here lies our love
One last lament
In configurations
Twisted and bent
My shattered hope
The one I couldn’t save
I wept like Jesus standing over your grave
Standing over your grave

My sole desire
My counterpart
This love will tear
My soul apart
Don’t leave me here
Here on my own
My hellbound heart
Is coming home
Coming home

Seeds of torment plant their roots inside my mind
I’ll pry apart your fingers to hold your hand in mine
(one more time)
And all the dark unknown I would wander through
Just to one day find my way back to you

Such worlds to cross
Such sights to show
If you can wait for me
I’ll meet you down below
Searched hell on earth
To find the key
No one could ever dissever my soul from your soul
‘Cause you know that you’re perfect to me

My sole desire
My counterpart
This love will tear
My soul apart
Don’t leave me here
Here on my own
My hellbound heart
Is coming home
Coming home

All my nightmares are about you
All my nightmares are about you
All my nightmares are about you
All my nightmares are about you
All my nightmares are about you
‘Cause hell to me looks like life without you

Take me
Take me
Take me away
Take me
Take me
Take me with you

We can’t go back now, not alone
Your hellbound heart is coming home

My sole desire
My counterpart
This love will tear
My soul apart
Don’t leave me here
Here on my own
My hellbound heart
Is coming home
My sole desire
(My sole desire)
My counterpart
(My counterpart)
This love has torn
(This love has torn)
My soul apart
Don’t leave me here
(Don’t leave me here)
Here on my own
(Here on my own)
My hellbound heart
(My hellbound heart)
Is coming home
Coming home
