I would never take upon myself To put you back from pieces I would only complicate things And I would not know the way I would never break you I see the crack in it I would never break you I see the crack in it

I am the dark light And I am walking these halls again And I am fraught with the hourglass And I… And I am standing beside But how long can I keep living within limits Hemmed in by the rigors of halting, without Another day with steady clout Animal reasons come get you Pillars are falling to the ground Not all of us moving together Am I the one who dulls your shine Skin that outstretches its welcome Am I confined, some kind of child To stand in your shadow forever Places we take with steady clout Famished for creature and comfort Fever is coursing through my veins Maybe we belong here together Is this the way it has to be Is there a choice in the matter I'd rather die with steady clout Than live, the only way to be living The only way to be, with steady clout

Sweet amends The riddle, the heart of men It's tearing us open, a new globe Into fixture The brittlest bones to mend Wreak havoc above them A duel, help or hinder I must be moving on I must be right Luminary eyes speak volumes See the turning of worlds to spurn Will haul this cage, clear of harm And hold myself in your arms I may be wrong Luminary eyes Speak louder than words Desert my sole survivor It's drivel It's selfsame, vigil It's every single day And every single night It's selfsame, scapegrace It's drivel Eras bygone and on The interval decline This time, in denial You lie here with me Under a spell so deep I may be wrong And what's the use You're in the nude A figment of fantasy To receive the signal Keep coming in crippled Plant your feet here with me This is the top shelf variety

Ripe for hire Loot, legend Brighter skies, auspices My chief concern is only you I adorn you with deepest crimson See my vixen eyes This is a chronicle of deep conviction You will see my angel eyes Whisked away, fraud Always your champion My modern marvels of no use In love, a soothsayer In lust, as a safeguard Vintage, born scavenger And now, it's taken root there And now, it's taken root there In love again I adorn you with deepest crimson See my angel eyes Ushering in your aura Your scope is broad And your motives pure I'm ravished by the lore I'm ready to make you mine To coax and cozen To paint this portrait To make you mine
