The Conqueror

I was made an abandoned child
My eyes were scared
My hair grew wild
I learnt to live inside these walls
I built them up
So I'd never fall

I don't touch
I don't love
Trust is my answer
He just plays the conqueror

At night time on the District Line we kiss
You move your hand across my lap
And stand like a god in the mist
Unfinished works do not concern him
He sees the grandeur of things
He knows that I desire it
I scrabble for rhymes under the seats
I writhe and curse beneath my sheets
Neglected love is like a rose
It grows and follows wherever I go

I don't touch
I don't love
Trust is my answer
He just plays the conqueror
He just plays the conqueror
