Passion

Every word that falls from my lips falls on deaf ears and I suffocate

Now righteousness cast aside thrown to the ground

I close my eyes and I see you there

But my eyes deceive me every other sense says I'm alone

Now waking hours melt to sleepless nights and all fear has left me

If I could learn from my past

I'd possess the strength to walk away let your sweet taste

Fall from my lips but it resonates

And now I hold this so dear to let it fade would tear me apart

If I now left this all behind simply turned and walked away

Would the dawns light fall upon my face to end this tragedy

Still deep in the long black behind the shimmering blue

I'd swear that I have seen the last soul that I care to

So this is passion and it crawls upon my skin

And it sinks into my bones and I am whole again

And I feel it filling me and I pray it will never end

Now it burns within my veins and I am writing in ecstasy
