The Pretties Girl
11/06/2013

The prettiest girl, I never did demand,
in giving my name, and taking your hand
in sleeping, and dreaming, in each other's arms
Feeling far, so far away from harm

See the nude truth, you have something of mine,
a piece of my soul, and this deathly design
falls upon midnight, and we are seduced
and our love is utterly reduced

Love is devotion to the other forever
once set in motion, there's no other endeavor
There is no stopping this constant lust
for no one is leaving their innate mistrust

Regarding what remains, I give you the blame
For all that we did in beauty's name
I will not hurt myself for your lost perception
or your plunge into the depth of deception

But a part remains with you, though, we may never meet
Can't you see? pain is constant, and I am week
Tell me something I don't already know
Give me back that which makes me whole
