Didn't do the right thing
In the end or beginning
Now my past haunts me
No way out of this I can see
Can't they see that I'm not that strong?
Can't they understand, I didn't want to do wrong?
And when the ax fell upon our heads
I had no one by my side
And when it all was said and done
All I had was an amethyst ring
Ooh, sweet friend of mine
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Then she talked to me
With a voice full of sympathy
And I talked to her
Oh how kind, sweet she were
But the perfect day was long gone and I was left alone
My mind was crushed, like a sword-struck bone
And when my friend told me I betrayed her
There was nothing more to say
And when it all was said and done
All I had was an amethyst ring
Ooh, sweet friend of mine
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
I want to tell you how I felt that day
Hours of horror, grief and pain
I was broken, torn, a storm inside
I was crushed down and left to die
But I knew I could breath
And I knew I could breath
And I hoped that you would see
Someday
Inside me
And understand
I had thought that I could always be honest
And I had thought that I could lie, just if I must
I was wrong and I paid the price
For lying once and being honest twice
And when I met my friends back home
I knew there still was some hope
And when it all was said and done
Not all I had was an amethyst ring
Not all I had was an amethyst ring
