A Chance Encounter

The scenery
The vacant walls with unkempt, flat, uninspiring flowers
Drawn on for the mood
It’s clear to me
I’ve lost my way so many times before
Yet here I am outside your door
Not to be rude, but maybe can you take me in?
It’s been a long time
You know they’re calling me a killer out there
But they don’t know the half of it, or me
And people talk, it don’t mean only that I don’t know who I am
For creatures known for such destruction, I’m pacified just holding your hand
So try me
I can be
Everything and more you say to me
Well I won’t let this burn from underneath, see
Every
Memory
I remember now don’t mean a thing
Like watching how the tables turn with you
So you better believe everything I’ve ever said to you
You better believe it’s true
And baby don’t you understand?
Please take the life I know that I could never lead
Cause I know that it’s what you need to be
Cause when the world is all about saving those you love from who you are
Keep your heart at bay, a stray born to stay, but I’ll see you again when I find my way
Then try me
I will be
Everything and more you say to me
Well I won’t let this burn from underneath, see
Every
Memory
I remember now don’t mean a thing
Like watching how the tables turn with you
