I love everything about you
Your breathtaking face, the depth of your eyes
Your cheeks when you smile
I’m so charmed by your shape
Your divine arms that keep me safe
I’m mesmerized
You have me on my knees
Humbled, defeated, hypnotized.
I cannot comprehend you
I can’t keep you in my hands
You slip away
Right between my fingers
Each time I close my fist
To beat against your brain
I wanna understand
I need to understand!
You’re uncontrollable
Unexplored
Wild like Angolan jungle
But I need to know
It’s my time to get in.
I’ve travelled the world
But I’ve never seen a land like this
I step in with fear
Hold onto the red string of fate
The same I’ve tried to cut piece by piece
Burn with anger, melt with tears
But it’s still here
Indestructible like our souls.
I follow the thread into your wilderness
How beautiful you are!
I see honor, duty, unbreakable strength of character
I’m stunned by your love for adrenaline
Determination to achieve every dream
No matter how much shit
Life throws in your face
Pain, violence, loneliness
Some doors, you keep closed
Regardless of how hard I knock
It’s not the time, babe, stop.
Will I get lost? So lost in you I forget myself?
It’s already too far to turn back.
The thread hurts my hands
I bleed to the ground
So tired, so starved
But I keep on walking
My eyes on your light.
This love is like faith
Intangible and saint
With no guarantee of success
With no salvation to be bought
At the altar of our church
It tastes like heaven
But sometimes it hurts like hell
Cuz you’re so far away…
That endless string of fate
Keeps me alive
Gets me back on my feet
When I trip over my fears.
I love everything about you
Your forests and your deserts
Your secrets and closed doors
Your darkness and your light
I’ll never back off, I’ll never even try
I won’t get bored of discovering your paths
I’ve made home in your soul
And I’m planning to stay.
This land is claimed.
