Across a Thousand Blades - Black Tape For A Blue Girl

Angel, why am I so blind?

The room: sweat pouring, eastern incense

Warm red embers within amber flesh

Slithering naked across a thousand blades

…across a thousand blades

I hold you gently, your eyes so far away

Searching for your justice

Searching for your innocence

Lost as a child adrift on a lonely sea

…on a lonely sea

Burn my memory, burn my outline

The tears scream to scar your unpierced flesh

Shattered mirrors reflecting back your face

«let your defenses fall»

Your candles never burned me

The ashes fall to the ground

…as you try to pierce my poisoned flesh

As I try to pierce your tortured heart
