The Best of Billy: a compilation.

Prelude (from my love my life).

you turned up in the shadows of my life
and ripped down the curtains letting the sunlight flood in, washing me in an essence i found foreign before

you took my hand and span me through this whirlwind and helped me ease into the crowd finally blending in

you promised me one thing and that was safety from you but i guess safety from myself was the hardest promise of all. i knew what i wanted but i wanted everything and that was the problem. i did want you but i wanted more, more than what was possible to offer

so i danced with you one last time and on the last spin you let go of my hand... and i haven't stopped spinning since.
