Penelope

A light shines through
So many wasted years
Without you
A cry unanswered
The reflection of your footsteps
Like an arrow through an axe
How could I have known?
So many wasted years

The room is spiraling
I wish I knew where to begin
The purple shadows on the wall
They help me feel safe

I wish I knew where to begin

As a tall olive tree stands
I fight those demons away
Forever unmoving
But my cry is answered
The curling of your lips
Like slicing sword through flesh
Guess I should have known
I fight those demons away

The room is spiraling
I wish I knew where to begin
The purple shadows on the wall
They help me feel safe

Where shall we begin?

As night falls
Reclaim your throne
My fragile figure
Masks the decay
Around us
Curling lips
Surrounding precious hips
The kingdom is dead
But the world is ours

Now tell me how it ends

The room is spiraling
I wish I knew where to begin
The purple shadows on the wall
They help me feel safe

Spiraling
Where to begin?
Purple shadows
Oh, so safe
