It doesn't get much worse than this Unsmiling face and empty kiss No solace here, my darkest hour A stark moment when love turns sour Peering into the abyss It doesn't get much worse than this A little death; this love was our Brave new world, a call to power Delicate, a brief Spring flower Fading in my ivory tower It doesn't get much worse than this Ill-advised dreams fail in darkness So here it is, my darkest hour Nothing left now, hope's meek cower My ending nears, an anti-bliss It doesn't get much worse than this
