Lyrics
Your kiss, burns the skin off my lips. Ignorant wandering was so awfully bliss. Then you stepped out of a dream, Are you real or just some evil scheme?
We waltzed, no step we missed - a vertical expression of a horizontal wish. So angels keep singing from above, because for now, the devil's hooked my tongue.
Illusion is love's game, a beautiful mirage in the desert of my brain. I reach to touch you but you're not there. Is this love, is this war, neither fair.
I chase you through the caverns of an empty soul. Tangled in spider webs from tales untold. Your black widow has snared love's butterfly, in your arms, she wished she had not passed by.
We tossed around the heavens and changed the stars, But my dear I fear we've taken taken it much too far. The salt of your skin is a needle within my arm pluck the strings and my ears start to ring like Pavlov's dog, heed your siren's call, on your jagged walls, you laugh when I fall to love- Just at your whim.
Addiction to you is misfortune to me. Imaginary conversations with you. Obsession or just attention. Faithful neither proving true.
