Crawl Inside Me

Yes

I’m so low and cold,
The beat of my heart
Is just slow and old.
I quake with shivers.
While numb to the light
I cry ice rivers.

Crawl inside me tonight.
Join me in my spite.
Crawl inside me tonight
Spark my pilot light.

Your hair hid your eyes
With one hand outstretched
You dared me to lie.
Then pounced like a cat
Claws bared, I was scratched
Bleeding and pathetic.

Crawl inside me tonight.
Join me in my spite.
Crawl inside me tonight
Spark my pilot light.

Need me‘til I’m up
I’ll fill your desires
Perfect and non-stop.
It’ll be hot and slow
Sparking my heart beat
With ember’s glow.
