He cut down the rope So they’d stop swinging They came one by one To hear his singing A line would form Up his lane and back Children and parents Painted in back The streets were cold And nothing moved Nothing alive With nothing to lose They heard his melodies Carry on through the air As they all bowed their heads No one wanted to stare Slow, soft and melodic His tune did tell The story of two lovers Who’s union brought hell Self-destructive and powerful Their energies rumbled the ground Yet on two legs, they stood strong For each other’s heart they had found The bond, unbreakable Cliche, but true A dangerous love with fury Until finally, it blew Too much emotion They couldn’t handle their hearts So to end all this energy They chose to die together before apart The man with a song Cut them down from the tree As the mourners in black Bowed their heads to not see ‘Sing with me!’ the man cried And the townspeople sang along To pay tribute to a love That had ended all wrong Two bodies lay next To the great old oak Eyes open, hands limp The product of choke Still, as they lay on the ground Still wet from the dew Their heads faced each other Eyes saying ,’i love you’ Eternally they will pour Their hearts to another For that is the result Of the dangerous lover

Dangerous Lover
He cut down the rope So they’d stop swinging They came one by one To hear his singing A line would form Up his lane and back Children and parents Painted in back The streets were cold And nothing moved Nothing alive With nothing to lose They heard his melodies Carry on through the air As they all bowed their heads No one wanted to stare Slow, soft and melodic His tune did tell The story of two lovers Who’s union brought hell Self-destructive and powerful Their energies rumbled the ground Yet on two legs, they stood strong For each other’s heart they had found The bond, unbreakable Cliche, but true A dangerous love with fury Until finally, it blew Too much emotion They couldn’t handle their hearts So to end all this energy They chose to die together before apart The man with a song Cut them down from the tree As the mourners in black Bowed their heads to not see ‘Sing with me!’ the man cried And the townspeople sang along To pay tribute to a love That had ended all wrong Two bodies lay next To the great old oak Eyes open, hands limp The product of choke Still, as they lay on the ground Still wet from the dew Their heads faced each other Eyes saying ,’i love you’ Eternally they will pour Their hearts to another For that is the result Of the dangerous lover
