Romulus And Venus - The Tear Garden

Written by：The Tear Garden

Everything you gave me

Lies within a trunk

Within a drawer

I burned one hundred photographs

Or more

I fled across the ocean

With another face

Another name

Nothing but my soul

Remained the same

But still you came

With cases

I was forced to let you stay

You bought the locks

The box in which I lay

I tried to get away from you

I tried to make a break

You always see right through me

There's no escape

I tried to get away from you

I tried to make a break

You always see right through me

There's no escape

I tried to get away get away

I can still remember you with cornets

White horses

I would run behind

You'd flash the sign

I dived just to serve you

But night-time turned the lady

To a girl again

You'd slip away

You tried to kiss my tears away

Pretend there was no day to take me down take me down

Nightshade blades Niagra Falls

I tried them all six times

But you would always run behind me

And you'd find me

Keep me on a leash

On a line

I'm uncomfortably resigned

There's no release 'til you untie me

Deny me

Deny me

I tried to get away from you

I tried to make a break

You always see right through me

There's no escape

I tried to get away from you

I tried to make a break

You always see right through me

There's no escape

I tried to get away from you

I tried to make a break

You always see right through me

There's no escape

I tried to get away from you

I tried to make a break

You always see right through me

There's no escape
