"Lament for Forbidden Love"

You adore my tender heart
Shards of yours invading it
When we kiss, I feel the glass
Cutting deeper, you are its keeper.

You own my heart,
Please treat it gently
I can�t stand your broken soul
You�re stealing mine from me.

I wanted you for so long
But now this just feels wrong
Waited and prayed for you
Time has run out for truth.

You hold me again,
And I can�t get away
But I�m not afraid
Your eyes holding sway

I cant let this go,
I want to be here
It�s killing me, I know
I cant see this clear.

I love you, I want you
But my mind is fighting back
Throw it all away, my caution
Throw it to the wind
All I wanted was you
Just one moment of sin

--------------------

"Mouldy"

Head heavy, mouth dry, taking in the sounds.
Lighter than air, we are floating.
Eyes closed, hearts open, no words spoken
Save this thought, save this moment

Locked inside our embrace
Forget the world that�s outside
Forget the tears that you�ve cried
Take comfort in me, take comfort in me

Breathe once more
Wait for the next shiver
I feel you inside me
And all I want is this moment

And the world turns to glass
Everywhere, it sparkles
Nothing is wrong, nothing is evil
Beauty rains, beauty reigns

Feeling so safe
I�ve bared myself to you
There�s nothing to fear
You�ll keep me warm,
You�ll keep me warm

You�ll stay with me.

--------------------

I turn my head to watch you sleep
And feel your breath upon my face
In this silence, you are mine
A perfect image, still and fine
No sorrow mars your perfect grace
Or my love for you

I love you more than words can say
More than my kisses can express
Fettered by these fleshly bounds
To show my love with sights and sounds
The only way I can confess
This, my love for you

--------------------

"poor wounded me"

I want you to be frightened
I want you to clear a path for me
When you see me coming straight for you
I want you to run, I want you to flee

This strength, this power - intoxicated
A sense of control - overtaken
What I want you to feel - intimidated
See the embers in my eyes - you're shaken

It feels good, it feels heavy
I could kill you with just a look
Or make you tremble with fear
With every breath you took

The poison leaking from around my ears
The noise pollution blackens my soul
And you can't see it unless I show it
You're kept ignorant if I want it

Hatred, fear, your obsession
You wanted me, I took possession
Chewed you up and spit you out
Wallow in your own self-doubt

This power, this pain - it thickens
I'm in control, I deal the cards
My body now rife with toxins
Brittle, broken, pointed shards

And no one can change it
No one can change me
Not unless I want it
Not unless I need it
