True love never waits
For the opening of the gates
It rattles in its cage
Spills its blood over scribbled pages
And staining your sad prose
Spreads like a rose
I misplaced my friends
Hands were shaken, chapters ended
Call me what you will
I could have kept them all and still
Be stranded in this strange, terrible place
After a lifetime being by myself
I never thought I needed anyone else
But true love never waits
For a verdict from the fates
It shakes you to the bone
Throws you on the street and gives you a home
