I've seen the best
And the worst you can be
And all while you're getting
The better of meYou're fragile but wicked
And fleeting as breath
And you move up behind me
And scare me to deathYou're fragile but wicked
And fleeting as breath
And you move up behind me
And scare me to deathAt war between
All good intentions and greed
My love is the kind
Where want becomes needWhere lust takes the toll
Of a quick stolen breath
You stir within me
And scare me to deathWhere lust takes the toll
Of a quick stolen breath
You stir within me
And scare me to deathA dose now
Of either heart or of mind
Can be lethal, it seems
If they're not combinedThey show but contempt
When considered as two
And pretend that each
Is the other to youNow you spit in your hands
And haul on the rope
And fill up my cup
With the worst kind of hopeYou lift me with words
I haven't found yet
I fall like your shadow
And you scare me to deathYou sleep here beside me
And scare me to death
You sleep here beside me
And you scare me to death
