Precisely Doomed

Ever since the day I chose to have you lost
I have found in you my very lust
Forever with you is now dead and gone
Now have I become the lonely one

I know it was my choice which left me blue
Now it is in another one I come into
Wish it'd been you who'd early caught my eye
Now nothing is left except my voice, I can't deny
Muffled in time by the sound of my choice
Will I be the only one to hear my voice?

Time, of course can't ever wait
Or you and I would have somehow found our fate

But let us have this moment now
As our first and last ballroom dance
Since we'll never have our bodies in God meet,
Let it at least for now rest upon our feet
