Stupid girl,
You should have known
That every promise leads to ruin
Stupid child,
You should have guessed
Your ivory tower could not hold
You're such a fool
You didn't prepare
So now you must drown
Your sickness burns you
I can't help you
You will not take me down with you
I love you
So maybe I must leave you
You cannot be what I need
One day you'll heal
I hope you will
On that day we may meet
You'll be happy to see me
On that day maybe I'll see
Once more we can be a family
But you must choose
Your life or the drug
I cannot save you with or without love
——
La Solitude (Joshua Kyan Aalampour)
