Theme: Bitter love
Title: sting than cobra
We kept fighting everyday
My love for you blinded my soul
The thought of leaving you a threw away
I thought patience is a virtue, now lost it all
Love is a bittersweet feeling
Am now a victim of it's bitter side
Carelessly sending me to Sheol
A place six feet underground
All my lust at the first sight
When I saw your beauty from a distance
Returned to the dust, to be treasured by worm
Now between me and my family
You have created infinite distance
Mother helplessly crying for his son
Gone before his dull academic gown
I thought so long as bed shakes
A little fight keep us stronger
You hide the sweet side
Turned to be a beast, showed me the bitter side
The side that suffocates
The most important gift of my life, breath
This side you showed me
Stings than cobra
