When You’ll Remember Again...

Let me tell you dear, God made you crazy

Sometime you dive into oblivion

And not know a person or thing

And then you enter this world of turmoil again

But in your unconsciousness you become a demon

And that's what I feared the most.

When you walked out of the house that night

I thought you were just missing fresh air

So I followed you, quietly stalking

But you walked into a blind alley

And weren't coming out

I entered after you, out of curiosity

I hadn't the slightest idea

How your thoughts were tossing like an angry ocean

How your memory had turned upside-down

I put my hand on your shoulder, you turned around

Suddenly you shoved me to the ground

Bound me with your body

In darkness and silence, no voice no sound

You were half scared half confused, your stare was profound.

Your disease wasn't allowing you to deliberate

I tried to summon your conscience, told you who I was

You couldn't concentrate.

You held out a pistol and aimed it against my head

I couldn't believe how you wanted me dead

But then, how could I blame you, I realized

You were out of your mind

I knew I was going to leave

You and the world

Couldn't deny destiny

But hoped to meet you in a different world

I didn't hit you, push you, hoping you'd just wake up

But then you did just what I had feared

You slayed me

But even then,

All I was worried about was

How you'll survive my absence
