Weep for the stars aligned Then died Night after night after night After night A carcass of dreams now rots beside me I keep clutching and crying and pleading ”Don’t leave me here Oh, don’t leave me, dear The world’s so much colder After all that we’ve shared” Awakened from a dream of enchantment To birds of prey tearing out my spleen ”You stole the fire, son, now regret it Did you really think there’d be no price to pay?” My hands are chained, been castrated Displays of rage won’t change a thing All that’s left for me is to Bleed Bleed Until I can’t Bleed Bleed Until I can’t bleed anymore A faithless man most of my life Now imploring indifferent skies ”Oh, some unknown god above, Save me!” I don’t want to be seen in this state of grovelling Attempting to bargain against fate Save me Save me, oh please save me… I need love I’m emptied out A carcass of dreams now rots beside me But I keep clutching and crying and pleading Through seasons of grief

Followed my bliss to forsaken lands Now my bliss is gone Hell to pay beyond the flames of lust No love goes unpunished Warning, warning Can you trust another human being? Warning, warning Fuck it, love is worth everything Blessed moments of self-forgetting Stole us away from life’s pain We lost ourselves in the rapture of passion The drug of all drugs I’ll reach for you, forever and ever A home is kept for you in my mind You can never be replaced, my love I’ll be sure to keep the top lock undone Even if you never return Followed my bliss to forsaken lands Now my bliss is gone Hell to pay beyond the flames of lust An invitation to burn forever No love goes unpunished Emotions will betray us Emotions will estrange us I choose - to burn for you I choose - to burn until there’s nothing left To lose - to burn for you To love Take my hand and burn with me

The pain you bring me Is the pain I’ve been wanting A terror that accompanies the joy of being found The the risk and the panic of gaining and losing all you have ever hoped for The sting of being shaken, awakened, and potentially broken... Don’t worry about the pain, love There’ll be more to take it all away Pain eats pain eats pain Alone or together, no escape Love is a god for which we suffer Lonely, possessive, full of needs A divine presence we find in each other Like god, destined to leave Lured in by mystery Siren singing to me Anchor that you need To become one Only to fall apart Become worse than before Broken - our home and hearts Two become none What secrets do you keep Behind your locked doors? Confess to me, I’ll be Forever yours I kneel before you Have mercy on me Vulnerable and human So disappointingly… Human Let me in Give me more Let you in Need your warmth A lonely god beside you Only seeks home inside you I still hear you call my name From the top of the stairs I come to you, arms outstretched When I arrive you aren’t there Despair… Despair… As I feel love and youth slip through my grasp Again And again And again Oh Love, please relieve the sadness Of our tragic human condition (perdition) Oh Love, please redeem the sorrow Of our human tragic disposition (sedition) Oh Love, please bring salvation More than ever, we need an illusion
