The ransom on your head
And the new marks upon my bed
A secret that lies between the sheets
The tremble of cold feet

I dipped a toe and it got wet
I could stop myself - not yet
I breathe my fear into your lungs
I clasped the cold ladder rungs

A silent scream of my own choice
A screaming calling crazy voice
We did it together - not strong enough on our own
Our choice to make our debt to condone

Now I lay in a ditch
With a heart of evil witch
Now numb buried in dark earth
A painful shallow berth

Call for me I need your name
To ignore my own pain
This is your own foolish doing
Watch the storm clouds are brewing

We see night and day but can we not look
At what we lost and what the dark one took
My foot is caught my heart in between my hands
My allegiances torn between lands

The light is diming and the night falls
And you and your voice calls
I crawl between the thorns
From this I never learn

A breeze between the sheets
Where body and I always meet
Reading to deep between the lines
Remember oh so many times

I did the wrong and I pay the price
Not once now but twice
The path is thicker the steps are faster
Like a dog called by his master

I need the rush and I love the fire
All things aside I just have on desire
No words because the actions speak louder
Like a fish on the shore - I continue to flounder

Like words written in stone
And a candle all alone
A deal is struck
And so goes my luck

A had a choice - and a future
But caught between web and suture
A trap that I walked into
A trail I chose to get to you

You call me now in the dark
You want me to play my part
No knife but still you leave scars
All your kind belong behind bars

But please know this comes from a place of love
But I cant touch you - without a glove
If I do I would burn
Just another lesson to learn

I have to go - I will follow the sun
Until I find another one
A galaxy filled with stars
A world that is unlike ours

I will shine like the moon
A light but hidden behind gloom
You see me and watch my glide
Seeking for the heart I hold inside
