She's a midnight moon, as soft and gentle as the stirring sea

I'm in my room, contemplating mortality

She's eclipsed in mystery, haunting my dreams in waking hours

Invite me out from my nightmares and let me into yours

I feel like nothing although I overcompensate

I just want one thing, to be laid to rest until these thoughts are gone

The trees are rustling, the hammering in my heart won't abate

The weight is crushing, may I stay a little longer?

You can slay me with your smile, I would immolate myself

Beguiled for one more moment beside you

I would sacrifice my health

I am not alone in this affliction, the past glistens in your tired eyes

For all the lives we've lived they all end in last goodbyes

I would swoon in the dim light for her

Swaying in perfect harmony

Coordinated revelations in codependent ecstacy

Everything is temporary as is my contentment

Resentment and deprivation entwined, my love's lament

My sweet darkness, disarm my heart serrated

Bloodlet my sorrows and lap them up from my helpless skin

Her form, flawless as unique

My heart ignites with a zealot's passion that burns from her within

You can slay me with a smile, I would immolate myself

Beguiled for one more moment beside you

I would sacrifice my health

I am not alone in this affliction, the past glistens in your tired eyes

For all the lives we've lived they all end in last goodbyes
