I was held by your beauty

By your amber eyes

Caught in a trench of my vice

and your lies

Darkness came knocking

As I watched you face watching me watching you

There was a searing eternity and nothing I could do

Darkness came knocking

I found beauty in you

Rhyme by no reason

You left me suspended

for one undue season

Darkness came knocking

tried to make me stay

Selling something I wanted

With a price I could not pay

go away, merchant peddler

I will not leave, nor will I stray

Darkness came knocking

...and I looked away
