Breathless -- Collaboration With Mystic Rose
BREATHLESS
I exhale vaporous swirls into the night black and cold
watching them race through moonlight, cascading uncontrolled
your eyes say everything, and in your gaze I'm frozen
I yearn to follow, to submit, and be your chosen.
Along the shore of heaven’s starry sea you guide
maddening silence shared, your breathing won’t confide
I faintly hear some ancient song pulsing rhythms primal
we dance while the universe turns to behold our sweet recital
Through stony pillars down into Earth’s very bosom led
Sounds get swallowed up and bound by words unsaid
I smile at the wicked runes somehow now so blessed
in the shadow rise and fall of your breathing chest
I exhale vaporous swirls into caverns black and cold
and watch them void of moonlight, etch the walls in gold
My thoughts are growing muddled, so I stop to watch you breathe
suffocating in the silence, as I watch you breathe,
I can't breathe…

BREATHE
When the night claims you like a wayward leaf of old
and it takes you to the caves where anything turns gold
you don't ask any questions and you don't dare breathe
you just follow her, like a light weight tumbled weed
Down the passages of dark, down the staircase of rune
every step a little deeper than the crevices of moon
you can almost taste the air, on your tonguing clepe
you can down the stars of heaven in one single leap
Taking you by the waist it shall dance you through
the elixir of happiness when your feeling down n' blue
you just thank the Lord for the magic of this gift
all you need is skin n' eyes to cross her lowly rift
When night claims you like a wayward leaf of old
and takes you to her caves, all etched with gold
don't ask her any questions just go ahead breathe
no, don't ask her anything at all, just breathe,
yes breathe...
