lyrics

She said, "it's 2am". I said, "it's right now". Slight smile and heightened eye-brow, she replied, "I'm a night owl. I'm alive while you lie down." Lights out... yeah. Blind as my mind found Einsteins relativity. I'm proud as that wives tale: love at first sight. I'm her clientele. But I'm her first knight. Shine as the vinyl lines rhyme Lionel in the background. I can tell by biting nails that she acts out. Never mind, I announce what's inside my clasped mouth... "My God, I can save you." Cleanse you and make you my queen. Give you everything. If you only leave. And my name is Adam... You're my new years eve.



She asked, "is it me, Lord?"
You're dirty. But I will clean your heart so you and me can be more.
She asked, "is it me, Lord?"
you've left me. Ignored. But I will bring you back. Restored.


She steals the sheets when she sleeps but my feet shiver less when men are less chivalrous. She creeps in a sundress under the crescent moon guillotine. Her presence soon fills the streets and I feel it's sting. Sunrise: she feels it's me but can't decide in her mind if her will's complete. Are you ill of needs? I will bring you anything your heart perceives. Just believe it's only me that can set you free... Sirens in distance. Is someone hurt or just caught in your fishnets? I'd go berserk and just bind you in wristlits but my kindness is meant for your repentance. My life sacrificed as a gift it's all I have to give; I'll admit it's as senseless as loving so much and in return all I get is your wishlist... I'll see you next Christmas.
