Deeper
The arching back
Like fingers scratching chalkboard spine
A recognition of a look, that circus
Whirlwind deep inside like Northern Lights
Flickering a rampant flecking iris
I could so easily break a heart
The demonic lust you sooth like karma
Eating through me like a tunnel of fog
And, vapoured, you have corrupted me
I delve inside of it and of a sudden embrace
I could so easily break a heart
Give me an answer
I lie and sway clear into the grey
The less you know, the less I burn
The less I bleed, the more it beats
I cannot move past this
Give me an answer
Could you so easily break a heart?
I could so easily give my heart
I cannot move past this
Give me an answer.
