Tormented
I sit here tonight listening to song’s that echo the desire
That’s raging with all of heavens might deep within my heart
Fueled by the sound of your voice the thought of your smile your eyes
My minds racing like a dragster full speed to keep me from falling apart
I look out the window and watch the rain trying to hide the drops
Streaking down my cheeks the distance between us a razor piercing
My skin deeper with every breath neither sleep nor alcohol stops
The agony coursing through my veins only the notes of your song
Can do for my emotional pain that vicodin does for physical torment
The journey to find you was long and treacherous many times I sat
And contemplated hangin my head and walkin away no parting comment
But as always my heart demanded satisfaction giving me the strength
To toughen up and forge my way year after soul wrenching year
And today I stand within the threshold to paradise searching for the key
Growing impatient with each passing minute to feel your touch and hear
Good morning, goodnight honey and I love you till the day I’m called home
I try to find advice and solace within my friends and family
And like a broken record I’m told good things come to those who wait
I cry out can’t you see I’ve waited long enough you might think me silly
Or even crazy but love demands obedience and right now
It’s screaming do what you must to end this misery and suffering
Fight what battles you must borrow what you can steal what you need
Cause my voice will only grow louder and louder like bells ringing
Until the day we become one with our angel of destiny
