Tipper Bootsale and The New Nine-Tenths - The Imagined Ever-After / The Pact
The Imagined Ever-after
Fallen hard
Spinning round and round
Feet don't touch the ground here
But there's something else
An itch that can't be scratched
And a question never asked
A Heart enslaved
The beating trapped by Love
a cruel and vicious Master
Tightly bound
and locked behind a door
an imagined ever after
The Pact
The marks were made by loving hands
The lie that we are safe and sound here
(The lie spoken without feeling)
The book is bound in human fear
The words wrapped tightly all around us here
(The words spoken without meaning)
Deeper down, something has grown dark
Becoming all the world we know
(The dark a prison in the mind)
When we least expect it
Comes the hand tighting 'round the throat we go dark
(The hand taken with a vow)
A pact was made we understood the words
but not the consequences
Slipping into quiet panic
Drowning in the choking silence
Be mine - I'll be yours
We two are one now
Sleeping through the night
With one eye open
