Just Look My Way (Stolas' lament)

It is expected
An oath by blood to hold the tome
And the starlight passes overhead
Fuels all the skills I've honed
I am a guardian
A watcher of these ancient rites
Yet, I find myself drawn from that path
On those dazzling moonlit nights

Let me hold you, keep you close to me
I long to hear your voice
Come now, my little impish plaything
We both made our choice

I can give you everything you need
Or do you want to hear me plead?
Just look my way, just look my way
Is there something more that I don't know
That you won't say 'til we've both grown cold?
Just say, "Please stay"
Look my way

This unspoken contract
A deed we forged for mutual gain
If that's all this was, when you're not here
What is this rooted pain?
I don't care that you're of lower station
Or primed to sate my dark temptations
Why can't you understand?
Let me explain

'Cause I'm terrified, as I cry
To make these feelings true
What's left for me in this broken house
If I cannot have you?

I'll give you everything you need
What more is there? What more to plead?
Just look my way, just look my way
What can there be that I don't know?
Will you never tell or be so bold?
Just say, "please stay"
Look my way

Unless it's me?
And no matter what in this world I could give
It's not enough
To get through the walls, you've conjured up to live
Is this how she'd feel?
Abandoned, all alone and left to fend for herself
For some semblance of happiness that doesn't have to end

I will try to make amends
For making you means to an end
So, look my way, please, look my way
And if there's something more that I don't know?
I'll save us both before we grow cold
If you'll stay, and just say
"Look my way"

Look my way
Look my way
