I still crave her touch
Her cold and pain
She keeps me close
In my hands again
I still remember her eyes
Her truth and lies
I still feel her warmth
Her scars and shame
She watches me close my eyes
Into darkness our dreams drain
I still awaken at night
Her nightmares and chains
She reminds me to fight
In this life onto the next plane
