Riddle

Deep beneath this facade of hatred,
underneath this skin and bone.
Lives a man who's love lays dormant,
he's a man who bares his soul.

Far above pain and torment,
far above deceit and lies.
Lives a girl who's love is abundant,
she's a girl with the purest eyes.

Baby don't you know I'm the bitterest pill you could swallow.
Just to tilt your head back would mean no tomorrow.

There's a riddle hidden deep in my hollow.
If you venture there no one would follow.

Kiss my green heart centre
Be sucked into the vortex
Avoid my demons third eye
Lead with your mind
Locate the riddle
Sacrifice a part of yourself
Be reborn as part of me
Return to the external world
Look me in the eyes and whisper
"I know what you are"

Then maybe ill let you in.
And maybe you can consume me.
Then maybe ill confess my sins.
And maybe ill stop avoiding MYSELF.

Baby don't you know I'm the bitterest pill you could swallow.
Just to tilt your head back would mean no tomorrow.

There's a riddle hidden deep in my hollow.
If you venture there no one would follow.

Deep beneath the pain and ugly.
Deep beneath these faded scars,
Is a man who's riddle haunts him.
He's a man with missing parts.

Far above a listed romance,
Far above the futile trying.
Is a girl who's life is a slow dance,
She's a girl with the purest eyes.

Just to look in those eyes
Just to look in those eyes
Just to look in those eyes
Just to look in those eyes
