I wish you would open your eyes and tell me what you find
It ain't no secret that all along you've been quite blind
Seeing what you want to see, for me it's been a mission
To turn your head, to make you smile and uncloud your vision
What you've always wanted has been waiting for you right here
In the twilight and the gloom like the apparitions that you fear
Don't shy away from it, what could be the wildest ride
You must fight your instinct to keep from running and trying to hide
Deep inside, you know that it's always been you and me
Playing out like the bittersweet sound of a wicked symphony
Taking these unfettered steps in a dance down in the dark
You cling to me so tight and with your teeth you leave your mark
Yet all of this is in my mind, it's too hard to make you see
That in the dead of night your soul yearns to come to me
So I leave you now to sleep and dream your twisted life away
And I will live in the shadows of your heart, love, come what may
