Did you know you were my first kill?
I hunted you for years
I crossed the ocean seven times
to worship at your gate
You threw me crumbs from your high tower
With bloody knees I knelt
and licked them up, one by one
I would have been your slave until the grave
Tie me up and take me home
Tie me up to release me
I was born into insanity
Tie me up to make me free
But the gate was never opened
And the crumbs, they all turned stale
The beast in me was choking, so I had to let him out
I watched my demons take you
down by the river at night
They baptized you in secret, they kissed you with their light
Tie me up and take me home
Tie me up to release me
I was born into insanity
Tie me up to make me free
It was in the shadows where I loved you most –
when I could see your scars up close
You were too beautiful not to slay
and waltz with in my arms
I watched you take your last breath
and the crumbs turned into meals
I feasted on your body
I drank your blood like wine
I sang to you a sweet song
about death and the divine
Tie me up and take me home
Tie me up to release me
I was born into insanity
Tie me up to make me free
I love it Hannah! Fiery and chilling at the same time.
Have you heard of the new tv program starting soon which features song writers showcasing their own songs and naming whom they would want to have sing their song. Who would you like to hear sing your song? It would have to be someone totally worthy, no featherweights need apply.
I was once upon a time immersed in the Vampire Chronicles....your song reminded me of that pleasure
Leonard would be great too. Here's my fave Nick Cave song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02k-obmDw2Y
That is a beautiful song, very dear. Thank you for introducing me to Nick Cave. It is wonderful that Michael and you can create music together. I m happy for you two. I was fantasizing about a simple app that could conjure a hologram image of an artist like Nick Cave or Leonard Cohen or someone else and insert the words of a song into that hologram and hear the way it would sound.
