I gave safe passage to your demons
when the darkness came to call
waved ‘goodbye cruel world’ and whispered
why stumble when I can fall?
I’ll be the ghost who comes to haunt you
the one who’ll own your every waking hour
and when you’re trying to ‘rescue dreams’
your sanity I’ll devour
that’s the price you pay for breaking
this heart I once held dear
from here and till the end of time
memory of me will never disappear

You gave safe passage to my demons
but I couldn’t move on and never say
the words I left for an epitaph
read, ‘Summer died on a Saturday’
