A love song...

Working title: "Flinch"

so many moons ago i saw you
in the ghost of your salvation
she was a pale reprieve
but the nights were beautifully cold

so many times our childhood
brought us anesthetic comfort
so many beasts ate our pleasure
our poise it seems ever growing

on leather wings they drowned me
in a sea of sanguine passion
though she was always present
no fires or death could divide us

standing on the edge of salvation
your soul could easily vanish
torn between two worlds of smoke
and through it all you spared me


chorus:
this night will last for eternity
if we let it
this night will consume us all
so helpless and satisfied x2:


you felt as if you were nothing
you sought a dust covered shelf
but faceless masses should not concern
you are the night resurrected

the distance sometimes suffocates me
playing imaginary games
but you are always here when I burn
the chest becomes tight and the throat turns

i'm tasting my heart for the first time
though many times i've said
i've smashed through all those mirror walls
and now i find you there

:chorus:

:interlude:

:repeat chorus 4x:

:fading end:

Good goth...Drac, your talent amazes me. You simply must post more of your songwritting work.
Oh, reminds me a bit of 'Flowers' by you-know-who.
The nameless narrative was beautifully toyed with, as if you're playing with fire and yet perfectly hold the flames in your torch until all is lit out.
Hopefully, I've critiqued poetically enough so everyone can understand what I'm saying XD

Thank you both very much! I'm proud of this one too. I guess love can amplify one's soul. Vyv, I did actually quote Rozz in the line "I'm tasting my heart for the firs time", via "the Drowning".

I'm a lyrics and voice guy, music usually comes second to those.

And I like this! What inspired you then? Love?
