Why must you turn to me
when your troubles are overflowing...
Why try to make today like tomorrow
no one can know what the future will bring...
Her face is wild, uncontrollable
Like an undisciplined child's...
The meaning of life is written on your chest
Yet you speak with such calculation...
I wait in the night
by the flames so bright...
Each swallow paid
it looked so surreal...
You were the guilty and the innocent
victim or criminal you could not choose...
Your beauty steals my sense of fear away
True eyes, I gaze in, banishing the clock...
