sanctuary

be my angel and i'll be your devil.
i'll seduce you to the fire.
fits well with my self portrait of rebel -
oh never mind, i'm such a liar.

i'm just looking in you for a refuge,
an altar where i don't have to kneel,
a religion that won't make me stooge.
be my sanctuary where i can heal.

this adamant shape of ice -
if i tear it off from me
do you think it will suffice
to grant me sanctuary?

if i cut me horns and clip my wings
will you turn into my saviour?
shelter me from everything?
grant me peace of mind that i can savour?

i'm just looking in you for a refuge,
an altar where i don't have to kneel,
a religion that won't make me stooge.
be my sanctuary where i can heal.
