Never Expected You To Understand
written by Morbid Angel

Why are you so afraid?
I showed you what happened with the blade,
I showed you the scars that will never fade,
The ends of my life began to fray,
A pool of blood where I once lay,
I showed you the wounds I had made,
I told you about all the times I prayed,
Not once believing in God, just hoping to be saved,
I told you my mistakes, for them I paid,
All because once, I was betrayed.

In your arms I cried,
You must of been so scared, your bloody bride,
Maybe it was then that your feelings died,
I showed you the knife, covered in blood dried,
I told you about the times I was forced to hide,
On the edge of life, searching for a guide,
Anything, hope, any form of light,
For once I let down my walls, let go of my pride,
Let you in to this crazy ride I call life,
I thought you loved me, said you'd stay by my side,
Emotionally gagged and tied,
For once I pushed the chains that held me aside,
Looked inside you for somebody to confide,
But instead I felt lost, alone, outside.

You looked at me, seeing tears and hate,
Saw something not worth loving, knew my fate,
You told me you loved me, a second too late,
I was already dead by then, hell awaits,
I didn't realise you needed me, through the blood that I create,
I never realised you could relate,
I never knew you saw me as your soul mate,
I just regret what I left behind, I'll meet you at the gate.
