Gentle

Are we jaded?
Bleached out -faded
Under a blistered sun

Gentle persuasions
Distant
So twisted

In your arms I feel the suffocation
Losing consciousness a beautiful sensation
I drown myself in waters deep within
Deep within your smile

Lie here
Wasted
Waiting
X-rated

Sunlight burns my eyes
Are you
My savior
Turn tricks
And favors

In your arms I feel the suffocation
Losing consciousness a beautiful sensation
I drown myself in waters deep within your smile
A gentle place where I can leave behind
The shadows of my mind

Where do we go from here?
So far away and yet so near
A funeral pyre to light the sky
Trust and reason suicide

Are we
A lost Cause
Too late
For our fate

But in your arms I feel the suffocation
Losing consciousness a beautiful sensation
I drown myself in waters deep within your smile
A gentle place where I can leave behind
The shadows of my mind
