My flame lights your torch
So you fuel my fire
My being needs your touch
So you fill my desire

As bodies connect
Our spirits - they soar
As we intersect
Our hearts cry for more

We revel in the beauty of the moment
for the moment is all we have

Obsessed and addicted
Spinning out of control
Our worlds are affected
Until they are no more

Seekers of salvation
We speak words of love
Afraid of damnation
From forces above

We are tossed into waters of oblivion
for oblivion is our only hope

We run from ourselves
We run to each other
Like babes in the woods
Seeking their mother

Living we mimic
Playing the same tunes
Manic in panic
We've made our own tombs



1998
