Move In For the Kill

And to the captives, I now free your souls
Run free into the night with arms spread apart
Realize, you can be regained and someone else’s
So think with your heads and not with your hearts.

I freed you for feelings, the goodness I get
When doing what is right and not so wrong
I freed you for love, the sound of harmony
As depicted by two who share in one song.

If by chance you return into the bonds
Of another that only wishes to ever control.
Let not them contain, control and maintain
But take back from them, that which they stole.

You take, then you have the upper hand
Make them subservient to your wishes and will
Make them see the strength of your hearts
And surprise them fast when moving in for the kill.
