Tear Garden - Romulus And Venus lyrics

everything you gave me lies within a trunk, within a drawer

I burned one hundred photographs or more

I fled across the ocean wioth another face, another name

Nothing but my soul remained the same

But still you came with cases I was forced to let you stay

You bought the locks, the box in which I lay

I tried to get away from you

I tried to make a break

You always see right through me, there's no escape

I can still remember you with coronets, white horses

I would run behind you'd flash a sign I'd dive

Just to serve you

Night time's turned the lady to a girl again, you'd slip away

You tried to kiss my tears away, pretend there was no day to take me down

Nightshade, blades, Niagra falls - I tried them all six times

You would always run behind me

And you'd find me

Keep me on a leash, on a line

I'm uncomfortably resigned

There's no release till you untie me

Deny me
