i am wading through the waters wanting you i don't dare look cuz i'll see right through i tried to warn myself to sleep, but now i'm wading, way too deep i can't scream my sirens any higher, cuz i'm bound to find a fire i can smell your closeness though you hide in your tower, the peasant boy plagued by the princess of power and out of the struggle of your isolation, comes a redemption of innocence by association i can't scream my sirens any higher, cuz i'm bound to find a fire so i will play your game, cuz it's my game too a stranger's arthmetic where one and one don't make two i can sense a softness there, can you imagine the lifenessness that we could share, i can't scream my sirens any higher, cuz i'm bound to find a fire..
