I want someone who sees the kindness in my demon eyes
Who doesn't fear my little lies
Who doesn't fear my little cries
In the dark
While I'm weak
She won't bite my neck and tear
Though intrusive thoughts are there
She is mine and I am her divine
Our lives intertwine
Our lives intertwine
I am old and she is young
But not too young (don't want you crowd getting the wrong idea *taps cigarette stylishly*)
Not too young to understand
What it means to hold the hand
Of one she loves; so deeply and so fully
That she commits to him wholly
All that is her self
All that is her self
Our lives intertwine
Our lives intertwine
She never bites my neck
She never rips it out
She protects me
She surprises me
And she surprises herself
Our lives intertwine
Even though it hurts sometimes
Our lives intertwine
In the darkness of the night
When the sun has set
And it is time to rest
She is there
And she is protecting me
I am old
And she is young...but not too young...and I love her
I pass
In peace
She never harmed me
At least not in ways that were cruel
I loved her
And she loved me
And she kept me safe
And the children I gave her will now keep her safe
Our lives were intertwined
