Lover Cup

I want to hold you like I should
But I've been cut by thorns that do no good
My evil ways come to me in waves
Don't tell Alice I've been lost for days
Give me something to paint the floor
Like The Shining did before
Like a Trojan horse let through the gate
Showed no remorse as you berate
Fight, flight or freeze your words will
Form my beliefs in a fawning disease
I've been doing time deep in my mind
A ruin that survives on live or die
Sick n sweet in a twisted war
Yet I want more
I want to hold you like I should
But I've been cut by thorns that do no good
Sail me down a stream
In a cup made of our dreams
We'll take it slow
And start to glow
Our lover cup will overflow
Like hannibal with a knife to thrust
A tyrannical slashing of your love and trust
Now constant thoughts brood intertwined
A pain that a brain is designed to remind
Cradled in a garden full of thorns
I'll parade till the jobs done and I've won
A lover cup spilling out the remedy
With no more enemies
I've made a man of me, and a new identity
I've been down this road before
Dance with shanks in lonely halls
Give me something to paint the floor
Like The Shining did before
I want to hold you like I should
But I've been cut by thorns that do no good
Sail me down a stream
In a cup made of our dreams
We'll take it slow
And start to glow
Our lover cup will overflow
I need to love you through this storm
But I've been cut by thorns
