She's Got The Gods At Bay

Folder: 
Romanticism

she's got the power of the gods
at bay
an ocean in her hands
sailboats on rivers in her eyes
carry
soft visions from her head

from her heart where they began

she touches you with a glance
and steals you with a stare
but you surrender to your choice
she never saught to take

you're glad you're there in her arms
then you have to face the world
you wish it would love the truth
just surrender self to her

well at least if she's beside you
you'll keep the gods at bay, too

i'll keep the gods at bay with you

she's got the power of evil
limbless
to wrestle with itself
gunships amidst icebergs in their nights
none of
their visions will mend

from their heart where they began

she touches you with a glance
and steals you with a stare
but you surrender to your choice
she never saught to take

you're glad you're there in her arms
then you have to face the world
you wish it would love the truth
just surrender self to her

well at least if she's beside you
you'll keep the gods at bay, too

i'll keep the gods at bay with you

and i would choose one glance from you for life
over the constant glare of their spotlights
and i would choose one glance from you for...all eternity
but i'd love to look in your eyes without fear of blinking

i know we're not in love, but we're friends
and you know i don't fear much, if that
so don't disappear...
when i fall asleep in your arms, like you have, cause i am
