Three Toed Foot
I spent time, wasted and worthy, on others
I regret too much to count or bare the witness stand
I've fallen too many that hands no longer offer for help
And now...I've found more than what i wanted
Within my last gasp before plunging
It was heard of my attempts at the rope
Found was l by my love and beauty
Her glaze sends me spiralling into madness
Tearing my hair, stomping my brain to oblivion
Isn't it funny what love does to us?
"If the Earth blew down right now
Would you give up your time
And give her you life in hand?"
"If the Earth blew down right now
I would give her my time
And give up my life for her breathing
I would die for her heat's whim
Kill for her heart's desire
Suffer for her heat's content"
My life has no meaning without her
So I'd gather my power and protect her
Even if the Earth fell to its knees
