thanks Dragoknight, I have decided to call it "Leaving Us"...

I wrote this, like I said, basically about a personal experience... but here's the story behind it:

Well, I based this partially off of my art that I do, becuase I do alot of art on the covers of my books, with lyrics and stuff, all in different texts and different tatoo-like pictures on them, but one I use on every single one of my books is an angel with ripped wings, covered in bandages and with bandages over her eyes, with blood stains where the eyes would be.
Well, basically in the song, the story is that this girl goes through some traumatic experience, like abuse or something by a boyfriend or something, and goes crazy and kills him. She is then sent to an insane asylum, which she thinks is heaven because everything is white and the "angels" are all white. She is still depressed and insane, and she ends up stabbing her eyes out, believing it would relieve her of all her pain. Even after what has happened, she still has love for her dead boyfriend, and begins to think that the "angel" who is taking care of her is her boyfriend and falls "back" in love with him... But she cant understand why he wont love her back(obviously becuase its innapropriate, even though he may slightly love her in the first place), so she runs away a couple of times, and in the end, he quits his job becuase he doesnt think their relationship is healthy, and she ends up killing herself.

yuppers..
