Tender Dominance

Fiends made an appearance on that fateful evening
A rendezvous that was nothing short of enthralling
Fancy masks concocted the pretentious charade
Dancing away the jittery in that ritzy masquerade.

Someone breezed in the cluster as if to soothe
It was you who was there to bare the lurking truth
Menace veiled in honeyed words kindled our jest
How blissfully unaware we were of our ultimate test.

Believing and being believed; that's not how it was supposed to be
Yet here we are; our facade blooming into the realest bond it can be
Being dominated by you, who stood by me, may not be so bad
In exchange, please let me dye you in my world of black.

God abandons children who are disobedient
And thus I was forsaken in the demons' tent
I can't unravel what love is if not dominance
I'm nothing but a wanderer thirsty for vengeance.

The murky realm I grew up in remains a stranger to you
Grey in the place of black and white is understood by few
Even so, you turned out to be my place of salvation
A ray cast upon the defiled through revelation.

Yearning and being yearned for; that's not how we were supposed to feel
Yet here we are; accomplices sealed by a contract of the devil's deal
Binding your heart and body with those of mine may be gratifying
So please, unmask that beguiling entity you've been hiding.

Rose colored glasses cannot alter the vicious reality
I, who doesn't believe in God, make this fervent plea
May our liaison be made of a conviction like no other
If the blindfold slips, will the princess leave with her saber?

Loving and being loved; this is how our partnership is meant to be
Here we are now; bound by a dominion that has set us free
The me buried by the past will never be salvaged
But I will try to walk forward with you step by step.
