please don't smile at me when your eyes meet mine
please turn away from my gaze
how I desire you, forbidden as thou art
yet my desire would destroy you
our union would bring death of self
you don't understand
do not offer to dwell here, away from eden
i see how this world calls to you
and I know this world desires you as you are
not as you will be, should you yield to it
your wings... it's them that call to us
we'd clip them if you'd let us
and lo the earth would punish us out of jealousy
the birds will feel the sting of butterflies, for the avoidance
run!
run away... away... to us!
no!
we dream of you, angel of eden
dream to be you again
and we know you dream of freedom from heaven
even if found in this hell
but tempt us not
