about

And so it begins, the hunt for my muse
Release these hungry hounds; let them sniff out her clues
The gods wait for no one, so don’t waste any time
She is their chalice, she is their wine
Is she their malice? Is she their crime?

Cus it seems so long ago since I felt the warmth
Of an innocently carefree and untainted heart
But before I start to sleep with all these blurry memories
Their howling once again, inviting my enemies
I hear them howling once again, enticing my enemies

You are so perfect
But I am dirt on the ground
So when I lose my purpose
There will be no sound
I don’t know you, but I want to
I don’t know you but I need to
I don’t know you, but I want you
I don’t know you, but I

Curse these eyes, and curse these thoughts
For making up stories, and making up plots
Where you are my lover my desperate companion
We make paradise with shameless abandon
We make paradise with shameless abandon

You are so perfect
But I am dirt on the ground
So when I lose my purpose
There will be no sound
I don’t know you, but I want to
I don’t know you but I need to
I don’t know you, but I want you
I don’t know you, but I

If I wasn’t obsessed with beauty
I’d be so happy
Take me, break me
Please don’t forsake me
I just wish to be happy
