I don't feel descriptions do any real justice. You get out of it what you choose.
oh, what pretty faces
the child did see
and through her eyes
i traveled
through my lips
she speaks

i've just seen a shadow
as tall as a tree
as gray as the horizon
lost somewhere at sea

i'm afraid of the demons
that i've tried to hide
they always haunt me
during the night

relax
you're with me
i'll tuck you in
no more days
of beauty
only a life of sin
