Romulus And Venus Lyrics - Singles - Tear Garden

Everything you gave me lies within a trunk, within a drawer 

I burned one hundred photographs or more 

I fled across the ocean wioth another face, another name 

Nothing but my soul remained the same 

But still you came with cases I was forced to let you stay 

You bought the locks, the box in which I lay 

I tried to get away from you 

I tried to make a break 

You always see right through me, there's no escape 

I can still remember you with coronets, white horses 

I would run behind you'd flash a sign I'd dive 

Just to serve you 

Night time's turned the lady to a girl again, you'd slip away 

You tried to kiss my tears away, pretend there was no day to take me down 

Nightshade, blades, Niagra falls - I tried them all six times 

You would always run behind me 

And you'd find me 

Keep me on a leash, on a line 

I'm uncomfortably resigned 

There's no release till you untie me 

Deny me
