Edge of Love

Bring on what awakens It falls under what I’ll lose And so it goes on sleeping Under a queen I will refuse Face what she calls perfect It got there through her pain And so it circles back to nothing Where every face becomes the same Calmness and reflection It gets me high on life But then I find where this is leading When I become her darling knight I’ll screw her just to prove it I’ll throw away my mind And when I find she’s non-existent I’ll spread her poison through a rhyme So lovely in completion So pointless to deny If self-hate did not believe me I’d give it all another try
