Velvet Chains
Final ChorusWrap me in your scarlet chains and pull
until the past goes mute beneath the pounding in my veins,Sing me quiet
while the lilies climb my legs like truths I’m too aroused
and tired to explain,Brand my ribs with every vow I never meant
but let you write across my skin like sacred stain,If I wake
and choose to step away, I’ll still remember how I begged you,how I
blessed you,how I knelt and called it lovewhile you were onlychains.
