My Medea

Inside the labyrinth walls
There lies a tiny child who sleeps alone
And as the daylight falls
The wind becomes so wild across the stone
For I have made her prison be Her every step away from me And this child I would destroy
If you tried to set her free
So come to me my love
I’ll tap into your strength and drain it dry
Can never have enough
For you I’d burn the length and breadth of sky
For it’s my thoughts that bind me here
It’s this love that I most fear
And this child I would destroy
For I hold her pain most dear
No haven for this heart
No shelter for this child in mazes lost
Heaven keep us apart
A curse for every mile of ocean crossed
For I must die for what I’ve done
A twist of fate a desert sun
For I see what I destroy
Sweet reflection knife into me For I see what I destroy
I can see what I’ve begun
