Take one back, back to the start
Back before this temptatious heart
Then do paint, a new picture
One where I was right for sure
He'll grasp me, drops trailing down
Hold me tight without a frown
Earth beams, hailing first female
Attesting to my morale
Yes, take one back, give one this
An extract of happiness
Where monsters give absent looks
And their tools aren't ripping hooks
Begged, groveled, even sung
For a life with love unwrung
No troubles or past to face
Such a perfect time and place
Please, paint one nights without fears
A canvas not laced with tears
He'll adore me, him I'll choose
Painless days, no black cord noose
Sabbath we'll enter Eden
Watch creation, your chosen
There to watch every blunder
Instead of miles under
Color honey meadows
Where none know screams, gone are foes
In which I dance in your halls
Not suffering sharp needles
But there floating high above
Carressed by warmth, by love
No troubles or past to face
Such a perfect time and place
Just take time, rewind the clock
Make gone demons who dare mock
Erase the black, all evils
In this soul where spite revels
And snakes degrade, defile
Mercy, nule my exile
If not, let reveries suffice
At least, let reveries suffice
