An Empty World’s Waltz.
|
I would wrap you the gift of an empty world
So you’d have something to call your own I would set you apart from these nameless battalions I’d call you a universe I’d leave you alone. I would love you from distance too far to define Let you live for the sake of your living I’d kill to repent for your loss of time. Our sun gave life with the rain Our collaborate minds were aligned Our war gleamed in red with beautiful gore Our peace would expand my beliefs I would wrap you in unexpandable deceit Though I would drift so far from your innocence eye So I empty it out Twist my crumbling spine So wrap me in something Usurp my desperate signs Gift me a life beyond my hold on your mind. I would wrap you in the leaves from the skyward limbed peak I’d scorn you pink-faced I must cast you out If I am ever to empty your world One last kiss on the mouth. |
