Sweet Tourniquet

by Lithium   May 3, 2007


Sweet tourniquet,
Embrace my sole,
Take my life,
Make me whole,

Sweet tourniquet,
Sing to me,
My dying song,
To set me free,

Sweet tourniquet,
Take me away
Above the clouds,
Make it this day,

Sweet tourniquet,
Take me to a place,
Where I belong,
Where smiles aren't dreams,
And I am strong,

Sweet tourniquet,
See my tears,
Touch my cheek,
And kiss my fears,

Sweet tourniquet,
Be part of me,
Strangle my heart,
Don't let me breath,

Sweet tourniquet,
Wave goodbye,

Sweet tourniquet,
Hear my whispers,

Sweet tourniquet,
Fail your duty,

Sweet tourniquet,
Sweet tourniquet.

[Potential song]

    I see where you are going with this as song lyrics...however the flow is lost a bit in changing the length of the stanzas and the way the rhyme scheme is switched up. One spelling error...verse one, sole should be soul....all in all a nicely written piece....think it will make great lyrics!
