Fatal Eclipse

With a turn of your hand
you pull me under again
You set the tide in motion, 
& I cannot escape the forces
that bind me to you

Every hurt you cause,
you seal with a kiss
& every touch is sacred
in this fatal eclipse

All I am to you
is the essence you can steal
& the only way out is to give in
so I surrender myself

I could have been your goddess, 
but you made me something else
So I will be your hell
& we need this 
more then anything else
