Will I lose my head if I get struck by lighting? Will it topple off dead — And you will continue in the cold Without my hand and head. I want to be covered in your scars To be smothered in your tiger suit That I would use to howl at the stars — Wishing that I had taken a different route. But alas, oh lord, it is not to be — I only have me in my firm head. You make me want to break off To run and find you Pacing on the bridge — In a triumph of black and gold Burning for you I hide and yearn While listening to the thunder — My Kingdom for your arms .

The Risk of Losing Oneself in Love
Will I lose my head if I get struck by lighting? Will it topple off dead — And you will continue in the cold Without my hand and head. I want to be covered in your scars To be smothered in your tiger suit That I would use to howl at the stars — Wishing that I had taken a different route. But alas, oh lord, it is not to be — I only have me in my firm head. You make me want to break off To run and find you Pacing on the bridge — In a triumph of black and gold Burning for you I hide and yearn While listening to the thunder — My Kingdom for your arms .
