afterglow

take me into the dark when i want to be alone
be cold to me when all i want is warmth
darken me in summers when all i feel is light
only you can end the day and summon all the night

violate me with all the dark intentions in your eyes
deepen the deepest fear i've felt between your sighs
change me into something willing, warm and weak
you will force my mouth shut and never let me speak

it will be a miracle when i see you here and know
you're not the only one who leaves my eyes aglow
you will break my heart again and again and again
but i don't feel anything

set a tasteless scene against a muggy sky
oh baby torture me until i start to cry
force me to drink the poison then leave me outside
chain me down alone so i can never fly

put me in a bind, a blackmail, a revenge
so i barely know who i am up against
i'll stay engaged to anything you want
just so i don't have to give my life another thought

it will be a miracle when i see you here and know
you're not the only one who leaves my eyes aglow
you will break my heart again and again and again
but i don't feel anything
