Exhale

Breathe free breathe out exhale my soul
Unchained from ill gotten sins empty not whole
Lovers at night friends by day 
Fewer words spoken safer that way
Tasteless wanderlust meandering lost
Salty tears shed no matter the cost
Black heart blue eyes temple of God
I melt when your in me a pile of mud
Breathe free breathe out exhale my soul
Unchained from ill gotten sins empty not whole 
Passion and lust and pain are our glue
Vines from the forest entwine me and you
Lovers at night friends by day
Fewer words spoken safer that way
Entranced by your soul and barred by your heart
I am your keeper we can’t be apart
Black heart blue eyes temple of God
I melt when your in me a pile of mud
Breathe free breathe out exhale my soul
Unchained from ill gotten sins empty not whole
