'Cemetery Gates' Lyrcis

Here are some lyrics that made me think of Havisham, from a song named 'Cemetery Gates' by a band named Pantera:

"The reverend he turned to me
Without a tear in his eye
It's nothing new for him to see
I didn't ask him why
I will remember
The love our souls had Sworn to make
Now I watch the falling rain
All my mind can see Now is your face,

Well I guess You took my youth
I gave it all away
Like the birth of a New-found joy
This love would end in rage
And when she died
I couldn't cry
The pride within my soul
You left me incomplete
All alone as the Memories now unfold."

The lyrics could be related to Havisham looking at herself in the past as a completely different person outside of her own body.
