Wanderstar

Wander star, across divinity's design
Carrying the wind of angels that speak no lies
On the wings of strangers we whisper goodnight
Our sandstone hearts the last to be martyred
At the altar, we sacrifice our eyes and lives
To taste of something a bit finer
Than the rust-marked dreams that once defined her
Now they seem a dress that doesn't fit
Tearing at the seams to a skirt of resistance
To the obscene, in this serene coming-of-age
We tell tales of passionate flames
Bound to the frayed ends of the same dress
She accompanied you to an empty grave in
Midnight on the rocks, she said
And held out a pale hand
It's intoxicating, and I can see
You will take me in tonight
I am the flight of a foreign angel
The black wings of the devil
Who has come to take you from fate's hold
Into the wonders of the unknown
Kiss your hips and whisper
Open your heart and legs to me
Softest lips I stain you
In the grasp of the devil's dreams
The dark it seems to smother
Your every best intention
The dark it seems a lover
Of keeping this undressed
In silent promises kept
And worlds beyond our depths
Remember me if not this, as I am
The name beneath a captive breath
In flames whose passion grips
And games of darkest lips
Remember this if not me, as this is
A slave to every expelled breath
Come to and for me
Bite your lip and loose the scream
Remember the devils you bury in dreams
That when you wake you'll know me
Wander star, across divinity's design
And I'll carve and kiss mine
Until all you know is the bliss you hold
At the razor-edge of the night.
