Lair
treasures sunken in your room
precious moments turn to stone
scattered across the floor
forever lost forever more
couldn't you have waited till i left the room?
did you really have to check your messages so soon?
i know you want to go
i know you love him so
i know you somehow
both think i don't know
well i'm not such a fool
i don't need to be told
i can see it in your eyes
so go!
shadows reach across the room
never too kind to be cruel
pleasures harden to bone
shatter all you think is true
