Addicted
He was intoxicating
Fond of abandoning
He left a sad little girl all alone
Years go by
He returns, but finds her grown
She saw past his alibi
He had stolen her life
All of her time
His refusal to take a wife
Befitting of the crime
The man whom she loved
Now owns a coffin
Closed with a hand, gloved
His face ashen
He had been lead astray
Taken an oath of loyalty
Then cast away
Hurt awfully
With a decision so foolish
Fueled by the betrayal
He signed his deathwish
Loaded the bullet in the barrel
He was intoxicating
Fond of abandoning
Though she loved him for sure
She let him go
She wasn't enough anymore
As he was buried below
The ashen ground
Devoid of sound
Dressed in black
She turned her back
Couldn't stand to see the grave
The life he so freely gave
How he'd hit rock bottom
She couldn't fathom
They were in love
Living life by each minute
Until he was sent above
His life taken by a bullet
His life was given
She wanted heaven
There went her last breath
As she joined him in death
They left their fingerprints
And have walked together ever since
