Come Armageddon, Come

You traced a heart in the middle of my chest-
I don't mind that it's anatomically incorrect.
Black hair like velvet, and your eyes are lost in space.
I woke to find the biggest smile spread across your face...

You've had the worst this world can give. (avert your eyes)
I hid the best from you,
but never did it well enough. (innocence dies)
I find those drugs too revealing for my taste; (let's close our eyes)
Illuminating parts of me I can't erase, and you said

"Hold me for a moment and I'll sleep.
I'd close my eyes, but tonight I'm far too deep
Inside my mind- I sleep best when I'm alone.
Until now, I've never been in love."
(until the day we meet again)

The air is sweet.
I guess your touch has brought me home (misguided me)
To Desolation: this place I've only known of (is in a dream)
I mapped my treasures out of lines in your face (are you a dream?)
But they all led me, led me right back to this place, where you said

"Hold me for a moment and I'll sleep.
I'd close my eyes, but tonight I'm far too deep (it's sink or swim)
Inside my mind- I sleep best when I'm alone.
Until now, I've never been in love."
(until the day we meet again)

(pull all your pain from my womb. pull meaning from everything)

Push me hard enough to lose my feet.
The rocks below will tear my body and I'll sink
Into your ocean, finding peace I've never known.

Embrace the shroud (do you believe in heaven?)
That circles down. (do you believe armageddon will come?)
And further down. (come armageddon, come)
Much further down. (come, armageddon come)

I've never been in love.
