Liquid Gold

Every second I spend with you

Is like a drop of Liquid Gold

Slowly dripping

Slowly escaping

Into the infernal Pool of Time

Until my time with you is up

And I must leave you once again

Until my happiness is taken away

And I must feel true pain once more

Why can’t the dripping come to a halt

Whenever I’m with you

So that I may be with you forever

Finally and forever

Why can’t this vase be mended

This vase of Liquid Gold

No mortal hands may stop it

Stop it from escaping

Into the infernal Pool of Time

This vase is evil

This vase is cursed

For nothing good can do such things

Nothing pure can possibly exist

While playing out such a deed

Taunting me

Spiting upon my face

Allowing only a glimpse of you

Too little and far apart

When shall this vase be mended

This vase of Liquid Gold

This cursed vase of Liquid Gold

Slowly dripping

Slowly escaping

Into the infernal Pool of Time

When shall it be healed

When shall it be mended

When shall the dripping stop

Finally and forever stop

And when shall I glimpse you again
