The Roof

And so my heart was pounding,
My inner voice resounding.
Begging me to turn away,
But I just had to see your face,
To feel alive
And then I casually walked in the room
While I was twisted in the web,
Of my desire for you
My apprehension blew away
I only wanted you
To taste my sadness
As you kissed me in the dark.

My favourite verse, of all, from any song I've ever known. It's scarily apt.

Like a child, I thought we'd be just fine, sitting. You'll trace stars on my palm and hearts on my back. We don't have to go anywhere or answer any questions. Or even think anything.

We can escape.

But no,
of course, I had to have more.
