Always(SeverusSnape)

She should have been my wife

I've loved her all my life

I'll always hate the boy because he has his mother's eyes

We played in the grass, the hours they pass

I walked in the night, you stood in the light

A prince in the dark, I carry the mark

I wanted to rise in everyone's eyes

I saw your disgust, our love turned to dust

My words were a knife that ended my life

I live in the past, my shadow is vast

Now I am a ghost who misses you most

The old man asked me why

I fight to keep the boy alive

How does my love survive after all this time

Always, always this spell I cast for you

Always, always the only thing I know is true

I'll guide him through his darkest night

I'll lead him by his silvery light

Until he wins the fight

Always, always

Always

I look at his face and see that disgrace

A son of a swine, he crosses the line

He's lazy and proud, he plays to the crowd

I hung from a tree, they all laughed at me

The sins of the dead are filling my head

I hated the man since it all began

But under the skin, his magic within

I hold back my hand and stick to the plan

The old man asked me why

I fight to keep the boy alive

How does my love survive after all this time

Always, always this spell I cast for you

Always, always the only thing I know is true

I'll guide him through his darkest night

I'll lead him by his silvery light

Until he wins the fight

Always, always

I begged that he spare her

In exchange for the sun

But I didn't get there

Until the killing was done

I walked into that ruined place

Saw terror frozen on her face

I held her body on the floor

And suddenly knew who I was fighting for

Oh

I'll place a sword beneath the ice

We both must pay the highest price

I'll raise this pig to face the knife

I'll trade his soul for every life

The greater good demands his death

I'll break my vow with bated breath

The time for shielding him is done

I'll place my hopes upon the sun

Always, always this spell I cast for you

Always, always the only thing I know is true

I'll guide him through his darkest night

I'll lead him by his silvery light

Until he wins the fight
