Detached

Detached

Who are you handsome stranger, you blew into my life
I looked into your eyes I saw the bloody knife

I built up walls around me so no one could touch my heart
But you cut them all to pieces like beautiful glass shard art

Parts that were so bitter, frozen, sad and blue
Suddenly became sweeter, warm, a different hue

I tried so hard to discourage, told you that I’m Pagan
You took it as a challenge and now you’ve got me beggin

Where this all will go, I haven’t a single clue
But I have a strong suspicion you know just what to do
