I want to kiss the heavens
I want to know what it's like to be pure
I want to feel the tender lips
Of a midnight embrace
I want to feel a sense of sanctuary
But when I open my eyes to this reality
Nothing left is pure
Everything tainted with the rattling of imprisoning chains
I want to kiss the heavens
Lay down in a bed of rose pedal tears
Just fade away
Slip deep into my fantasy
Lock myself away
Hide from this daunting misery
No longer being victimized by the memories
The all too real nightmares
I want to kiss the heavens
I want to know what it's like to be pure
Before it's too late
