You were turning to another state of time
I was learning to break this habit of mine
From glory and reason an emptiness evolves
Where nothing is sacred, truth evokes hatred
And there is no resolve
You can be my fortune fading away
You can be my life cascading away
You can be my noose today
Tender burning to melt away the soul
Lust and yearning beyond mortal control
Relinquishing freedom, to have and to have not
As threads are wound, passion's bound
Craving what you haven't got
You can be my fortune fading away
You can be my life cascading away
You can be my noose today
Tighter, tighter
Hanging on your every word
Tighter, tighter
Tighter, tighter
Holding more than you deserve
Tighter, tighter
You were turning to another state of time
You can be my fortune fading away
You can be my life cascading away
You can be why I am breaking away
You can be my noose today
Be my noose today
