Well, I’ve got
The world in my eyes and
The Universe in my Heart
I’m not sure where to start
Maybe with you.
We’ll ride the blue
Break the clear
Ride the clear
Run the fear
Be the fear
In your presence
The choice is clear
I’m your terrorist
I’m your hero
I’m the everything
You don’t know
I’m the terrorist
I’m the hero
There’s no telling
The seed I sow
Her eyes peel me
Steal me
Decimate me
Reel my once sacred sanity
Once comforted
Twice thwarted
Perched on my mountains
Her wingspan lifts them
Up and up.
I can’t tell if She’s
A beaming dove
Or a broken love
Meant to kill me
Feed me
Rob me
Take me
Wrapped and covered
In Her own form
Torn and shorn
A whispered scorn
…and at last
Her bloody storm is born
I’m Her hero
I’m Her terrorist
There’s no telling
The Lips I’ve kissed
I’m the hero
I’m the terrorist
I’m the everything
You’ve ever missed
Regal peaks smile grace
Miles paced
Along twisted banter
And trite mistakes
A flared cheek
Upon Her Sun
A new belonging
Comes undone.
