Contradictory Feelings
In the kingdom of love and passion
I find my feelings trapped in a mansion
A golden mansion haunted by a ghost’s spirit
Who unfold a web into my own spirit
Preventing my mind from thinking right
Veiling my eyes who no longer see the light
My heart seems to be a party to this plot
For he is ready to act and enjoy himself at any cost
Leaving me alone with fears and doubts
And I am afraid to let them out
It seems like they are playing a trick on me
And I am tempted to act even though a voice is warning me
Contradictory feelings take residence into my mind
Some are telling me to let go because I will be fine
While others are telling me to take it slow
Before I fall into deep sorrow
But how to resist this sweet taste of happiness
When it wraps my heart with warmth and tenderness
