I adored you
time was running
and I was loving
the whole of it
the enemy was buried
and found within me,
I'll name him Edmond Dantés
and banish him to the Chateau d'If,
I’ll frame him for disloyalty
and he can avenge me later for cruelty
(chorus)
time marched on
and the shame was in the holding on
and when I let go
I let it all go
so much of me had already gone
the nights became like thieves
stealing precious sleep
narrating the romance
despite the crumbling logicality
(chorus)
time marched on
and the shame was in the holding on
and when I let go
I let it all go
so much of me had already gone
I looked down to find a husk
of what was attempting to stand tall
and I loved you most painstakingly
through it all
I loved you most relentlessly
through it all.
