MUSIC FOR SALE

Verse 1
Vampiric soul, immortal is your heart of gold
A rose from any other, would never smell as sweet
My eternal muse, and yet you'll never know
That I smile like a cheshire cat, at the knowledge that you exist
Exist, you do, yet you're too pure to be true

Chorus 1
You keep me captivated by your ethereal dress
Hold my hands under your sleeves soft as angel wings
As we lose our sense of time and watch the sunset
Tell me all the origin stories behind your tattoos and rings
I will treasure every word that you have said
Hair of platinum and honey haunts my every dream
When I wake, I see every hue and shade in my head
I want to hear the liquid dulcet tones in which you speak
But I know that we were not written to be together
So I'll just settle for the figment of my lucid sleep

Verse 2
Sagittarius soul, immortal is the way you hold
Me with your cadence, hypnotise me as you speak
My eternal muse, I wonder if you'll ever know
That I never wrote a word of romance, until I learnt that you exist
Exist, you do, yet there's no one else like you

Chorus 2
You keep me captivated by your ethereal light
I want to be the one to fight off all of your demons
Stay awake until the witching hour putting the world to rights
Lay on the dew-drop grass with me, watching all the seasons
Take me to see your favourite bands in the neon nights
Though yours is the only voice that I wish to hear sing
You have a laugh that's just as musical and you don't even have to try
I know that no one's perfect, yet you could have fooled me
We've never said hello so we can never say goodbye
And I'll just settle for the figment of my lucid sleep

Verse 3
Obsidian soul, immortal is my heart you stole
Holding me in deep delusion, you know I have to leave
My eternal muse, I hope you'll never know
That sometimes I feel such sorrow because elsewhere you exist
Exist, you do, yet somehow it's almost cruel

Chorus 3
You keep me captivated by your eternal state of being
I've never been so enchanted such as this, don't you see?
I must forget, but I'm under a spell that isn't ceasing
Send me to an alternate world where you were made for me
But I hope that this twin of yours won't be lacking in your sweetness
You have a way of making the angels fall onto their knees
I'm just lost somewhere deep in the legion
Knowing that we walk the same planet is enough to bring me peace
There's nothing that I can do, I can lose no more sense of reason
So I'll just settle for the figment of my lucid sleep
