Is There A Rainbow At The End?

Can't it just be you and me in the end, til the end of time?
Maybe we can see the treasure everyone's been trying to find.
Or when hell freezes over, can't it just be the two of us together?
But all hopes I have left, have vanished
When I passed through a valley one could call hellish.
There, –but my eyes were wide and still– I noticed.
Even though you are good to me, you are not good for me.

For I get a disturbing feeling in my stomach when I'm missing you.
Then I curse myself to sleep when I just wanna be with you.
That though my very being is calm, with you I come undone
With every actions you do, I'm left here waiting for your letters you can never send but until you can.

A part of me died with you that I can never get back.
But then a part of you still lives within me and I can never make it stop.
What a clever little mess I've been
For breathing all the oxygen
Yet not living for what I have bargained.
Ah, but yes, I am the reflection of my sins.

So even if I tell myself, there's a rainbow at the end
I cannot deny that the rain hasn't stopped for thousands of days and tiresome countless nights.
And I don't think it ever will.
Because it rained when you went away.
It rained so hard, I felt like I was walking on wet cardboard
And I don't think you'll be coming back any day.
Because even if hell freezes over, you won't feel the cold and look for warmth nor will hear my laughter.

But still, I tell myself, there's a rainbow at the end.
