Our Hearts So Bound

 In the throes of heated things

Through the groans of displaced dreams

You come into the dappled light

You take my breath and blur my sight

I can only gasp and sigh

So long it's been

Since we cast the die

That lead us down this sorry road

We've long since lost our moral code

It's cost so much in blood and treasure

Ours sins run deep

One cannot measure


And yet you take my breath away

The same back then and to this day

You twirl around and take a bow

My heart it burns and then I vow

To make it all be worth the cost

This road we've run

This long way travelled

Through so many hopes unraveled

Our hearts so bound with vows and curses

And all the counters and reverses

Blood on our hands we can wash away

Through the birth of a new day
