I see light In your eyes
Twinkling like fireflies
Burning hot and white
Like comets in the nightOh, how I yearn
To live In your twilight
Oh, how I long
To be burned by your sunspotsWell, I'm lost when you sing
Because you're saying so much
More than your words
Can bringAnd its fleeting, like fire
Like a meteor, burning bright
I delight
In the curve of your smileThe intensity of
Your gaze
Turns me to stone
Because my heart feels open to changeIsn't it strange
That we find ourselves here
That we found each other
At allAnd when the world feels small
We'll look to the stars
For comfort
So enthralledI'm drawn to you
You're magnetic, electric
You pull me in
To your planetary orbitAnd we'll spin 'round
Gravitationally bound
I'll dance to the sound
Of your melodiesIt's such a tragedy
Riddled with pain
Written by Sophocles
"Lust It Feeds"Because you'll never
Feel the same
