i took my lover on a journey today
down into the pit of my personal hell
we went there hand-in-hand
i did not want her to go down there with me
but she insisted which is her way
she tasted the greenbrown noi$e inside
but she was not afraid
it was only i who wanted to sleep
so many my bitter tears
dulling c h o k i n g b l i n d i n g
yet she clasped me to her breast
she would not leave me there alone
to fight this nameless beast
speak its name she whispered into my ear
then it has no more power
speak its name out loud my lover dear womanmine
then lengthen your stride and increase your pace
and walk with me hand-in-hand
forever lover dear lionessmine
with no more fears
