Short Lived Legacy I: Halo-Bound to an Angel's Shadow

By Armour

Halo bound heart
To afraid to start
Handed you a key
To which my wrists bleed
Benevolent Angel - Upon the pedestal
I find security - as I hug your shadow
And etche within this dust - this is love not lust
And as silence breeds only silence
I know it and can't deny
But safe under a life of grace
Thoughts retreat to only you
I want only to protect you
To find hope within your wings
Remove all your sadness
Until the end of time undone
Don't fall into fear
I can cure with love
Protect you from them
Under a black sun
In your hand is the key to my heart
I'll confess my love - until forever
Even if forever were to break apart
Even if forever were to break my heart
(Female)
Forever is forever & forever it shall be
There now shed no tear, together you and me
Within this halo bound heart and halo bound hand
After this confession - forever we shall stand
