in every smile a lie
my fake faulty charms.
you know id like to die
for a night in your arms. :)
Why does it feel like
you're a thousand
miles away?
How did you manage
to lead me on
and then left me
to go astray?
Oh my shepherd
my dearest
come back to me
they say.
You're forgetting who you are
and your new religion
is casting us away.
Baby, forget the songs
of your own lover
and forget those that
they taught you.
Forget the world
as it was over
before they tore down
his statue
Lover, why do your eyes
water the grass
on which your toes curl upon?
Lover, why do you dance
not to the music
but to the sound of
to the chattering teeth
of the angry mobs?
They whisper behind your back
jealousy consumes them
like a trap
Honey, why do you swear
on the lives of the children
you'll never have?
My sweetheart, how could you
say things that even
my nightmares wouldn't have?
Darling they kept names for our love
like they wanted us to laugh
but the mistake wasn't that i loved you
it was that i loved you too much
for me to ask.
