Salt

Let me become all the things you hate
The forbidden fruit to tempt dubious fate
Take credit for my sins
I'd follow my heart but it leads me away from you

Hold a mirror against my face
But it's you I see
Seven years of bad luck
Came and decided to stay

Seduce me with fancy words
Let me drink your lies
Drunk on its flavour
Drug me with indifference

Tied hands in silk scarves
Blood red sheets, caress my indiscretions
Discover my secrets or live my denial
The world is a stage and you my reluctant muse

Believe my fairytales as I come alive
Let me be your fears, your reason to cry
I am neither here nor in between
Just when you believe, it always seems

Let me hold your hand, as I slit my wrists
The cherry lips across my fingertips
Let it drop, pool and eventually seeps
And our counsel... will forever be for keeps.
