Breaking Soul

Just to hear you whisper
I would die a thousand times over
Just to hear you speak
In your condescending way
I would stand down and break my cover

Just to see you smile at me
Would I release my all and fly?
Just to watch you sleeping
In that peaceful, lustful way
Would I give my obsessions and grant my life goodbye?

For a word of affection from you
Shall I boast of your warm arrogance?
For a touch of your skin to mine
A brush of a hand on my cheek
Shall I collapse on my knees from my defiant stance?

What can I do but watch from afar?
Though you speak as my lover
What else can I say to make you trust me?
Like I'm the only thing you hold dear
Yet if I was angel, I could say, "You broke her."

As screams torment your soul
Wouldn't you want to give yourself to me?
And when there's nothing but inclement torture
Nothing but an emptiness, void
Wouldn't you need to fall against me?

Just to hold you to me
I could shed a thousand years
Just to feel your presence
Your beautiful, striking presence
I'd face my worst, most angry fears

Speak to me, and tell me everything
In where teeming eyes spread their misery
Kiss me, baby, give me your trust
Give me anything you could possibly give
For it's all so beautiful to me

And hold my hands to your heart
For in forever, in eternity's depths
I would never survive without you
Couldn't breathe without your life sustaining touch
Break my soul until there's nothing left.
