My love is like a double-edged sword
Piercing through to the very core
Chiefly for the man that I adore
Since we're not together --
At least, not any more;
We've been apart for way too long
And even though our love is strong
We're paying a price neither of us can afford
Drawing blood on each side of this double-edged sword
All the peaks, all the valleys
The blood, sweat, and tears we have shed
Could not prepare us for all we now endure
It multiplied our suffering instead, this thing I know for sure
Calamity has set it, our lives are flawed
All our pain, a courtesy of this double-edged sword -- called love.
