Wy - Safehouse

The lantern in the window
Shattered to the floor
Kerosene and flames
Met the moonshine with a roar

The man who threw the bottle
Head encased in hands
Rocked against the wall
Weeping for the damned

And he sang

Oh
My love
My dear
I've killed for you for our whole lives
And I will not stop here

Drowned in bitter sweetness
He fell into his mind
A slow dance in the darkness
To the screaming wind outside

Refracted moonlight thrown and
shredded through blinds
He could barely still remember
That look inside her eyes

The cabin glowed like fire
Flames climbing on the curtains
He was never scared of death
Though he never was quite that certain

As the heat closed all around him
He truly was prepared to die
He might end up in hell
But he'd at least be at her side
