English Love

Confused by Beauty

Heal this wound I feel deep within my chest,
Say my name and I won’t care about the rest,
Let me dive like dolphins straight into your eyes,
Let me drink from your perfume and forget about goodbyes.

Your smile is nothing but sweet poison,
I lose my senses for no reason,
I throw myself naked into Lethe and sip from its ill waters,
Everything is gone and nothing matters.

Life itself is losing me when you cross my mind,
I forget about my plans and what I hope to find,
I roll the dice and play a risky game with Agony
To feel paradise like Ecstasy.

Still you’re so young and untainted
Just like a canvas about to be painted.
You and your dark hair might be right for me,
But I am surely wrong for you, so I’ll just leave you be.
