Silence swept like wind accross the night
While he sat and thought about it
Living in that envelope between truth and light
Light and dark, fear and paranoia
He's in a bind
Master and slave, master and commander
Enthralled

Doesn't want to breakout unless he has to
Doesn't want to stay unless he's let go

Whispers made light work of the silence
Shadow-wrapped hands played with fate
And thoughts and feeling like a puppeteer
Because jealousy is a beautiful thing.
Alright for some, she won't let him go
But he can't hold onto her.

She wants him to want her
She wants him to need her

Secrets are told and traded like cards
Appreciating with time the life they left
Behind but dragging it up and muddying water
that was already dark.
God and apostle.
The enthralled apostate.

Why can't she understand what he feels?
Why can't he feel, only she understands?

One takes another under a wing, and it
Seems to small a thing to complain
Until it interferes like the static on
Their broken tv.
He needed her more than someone else
Enraptured.

She wants them all to want her
She wants him to need her

sad. and the worst thing is, i can relate to it. more than i would like to...
