Like Moths To Flame |
Once again these bitter herbs, |
The perfect complement to all your cryptic words. |
I nod but don’t know what to say, |
But I know you, |
And I believe you’re who you say you are so I, |
I will follow you, |
Lay down my life. |
I would die for you, |
This very night. |
Once again the bread and wine, |
But it seems the meanings may be deeper still this time, |
And you surprised me when you said I’d fall away; |
Don’t you know me? |
I could never be ashamed of you. |
I will follow you, |
Lay down my life. |
I would die for you, |
This very night. |
I’ve never been this cold, |
The fire’s gravity compels, |
Like planets cling to Sol, |
I feel my orbit start to fail, |
Like moths to flame I come, |
Too close and all my oaths are burned |
As stars begin to run, |
All my accusers take their turn, |
And calling curses down. |
From my lips lies like poison spill, |
And then that awful sound, |
The sound of prophesy fulfilled, |
And then I met your eyes, |
And I remember everything, |
And something in me dies, |
The night that I betrayed my king… |
