Lower than before
it's up I look
the higher I soar
it's the farther I fall

Dangerously blind
to in love to mind
a prayer to be safe
only it time

I walk to a drum
a beat of it's own
I walk on a path
it's destination unknown

curiously innocent
lovely fire
burning within
a deadly desire

I take my time
play it slow
hold it close
then let it go
