Magnolia 04:36
I’m driven by what I find drop dead gorgeous Possessed by my passion and desire Within your eyes is a beauty uniquely endless And I’m completely consumed Seeing you in full bloom So fall into oblivion and give yourself to me Take my hand as we reach euphoria You’ve begun to come undone and taken with ecstasy When you say to me I’m your magnolia I’m your magnolia Near or far you’re the one thing that I’m after I get high as I taste the salt off your skin I can feel your heart starting to beat faster And I’m completely consumed Seeing you in full bloom So fall into oblivion and give yourself to me Take my hand as we reach euphoria You’ve begun to come undone and taken with ecstasy When you say to me I’m your magnolia I’m your magnolia You're my greatest hope My darkest fear And everything in between Cuz you're my muse The one I love I'll keep for eternity And I’m completely consumed Seeing you in full bloom So fall into oblivion and give yourself to me Take my hand as we reach euphoria You’ve begun to come undone and taken with ecstasy When you say to me... When you say to me... When you say to me... I’m your magnolia

Cooler colors always look good on you Cuz they match with the tone of your skin They bring out something your attitude I find attractive and so feminine I light up like a Christmas tree when I look in your eyes And it happens by no accident So come here and lock your arm within mine And I'll wear you like an ornament From the highlights you have in your hair To the sunhat that you like to wear Your sense of style Always brings me a smile And I love how you’re lavishly lavender Lazy Sundays in bed with you are what I dream of When I'd wrap you all around me Shower you with every ounce of my love And watch you pose on your vanity From the highlights you have in your hair To the sunhat that you like to wear Your sense of style Always brings me a smile And I love how you’re lavishly lavender I have no idea what I've gotten myself into I'm completely enamored with everything you say and do And there's something that comes over me When I see you dressed to the extreme That makes me wanna rip off your clothes and have my way with you From the highlights you have in your hair To the sunhat that you like to wear Your sense of style Always brings me a smile And I love how you’re lavishly lavender

You’re caught within this spider’s web All tangled up inside of it Better take what you can get ‘Cuz you won’t get away You can feel it growing from deep within There’s just no point in struggling Try to fight it but you know that you won’t win ‘Cuz there’s no way out I see your pretty eyes but don’t be frightened Just realize my hold’s gonna tighten Go ahead and try you’re not gonna break free You’re just fighting with yourself Take a look inside your mind You know just what you’ll find ‘Cuz it’s only a matter of time Before piece by piece you become mine You know it’s buried within your soul It’s got your head spinning out of control And now you’re trapped with nowhere to go No you won’t get away You can feel it growing from deep within There’s just no point in struggling Try to fight it but you know that you won’t win ‘Cuz there’s no way out I see your pretty eyes but don’t be frightened Just realize my hold’s gonna tighten Go ahead and try you’re not gonna break free You’re just fighting with yourself Take a look inside your mind You know just what you’ll find ‘Cuz it’s only a matter of time Before piece by piece you become mine Give in and give yourself to me ‘Cuz I’m the one that’s gonna set you free There’s nowhere else to go as you can see You’re gonna be all mine Take a look inside your mind You know just what you’ll find ‘Cuz it’s only a matter of time Before piece by piece you become mine Look inside your mind You know just what you’ll find ‘Cuz it’s only a matter of time Before piece by piece you become mine

Intangible 03:26
Walk with me on this evening we explore Through the narrows as the ocean waves hit the shore You reveal to me the tiger on your shoulder blade Inked in vibrant colors even though you know the red will fade You look at me with such intensity And I can't help taking notice At how your body starts to relax When I kiss your aching lips This feels surreal Exciting yet ethereal I want to hold Onto something that's intangible I'm serene with a feeling calm and beautiful When you whisper to me that you want me to take you home Your voice has a pleasant tone That I find inspiring But you really make my neurons fire When you get down on your knees The words you speak really resonate with me Just like the epic poems I read This feels surreal Exciting yet ethereal And I want to hold Onto something that's intangible And whether if you're in my arms or if I'm alone lost at sea You know how cerebral I can be And if I'm your Odysseus will you be my Penelope? Someone who would wait for me Faithfully This feels surreal Exciting yet ethereal And I want to hold Onto something that's intangible Now I walk alone in a world made of steel and concrete Troubled by dreams that haunt me when I sleep I'd love to share with you but doubt you'd understand That I lost something that I feel I let slip through my hands

There’s nothing that’ll keep you from me Got my target set there’s nowhere you can hide You’re just the kind of girl I need So come to me and leave your fears behind I’m a thief in the night And you’re looking good tonight Girl you’re all I’m thinking of Cuz you’re the object of my love Your love is like a mystery Keep it hidden to protect your fragile core You’re the lock and I’m the key So come to me and I’ll open your door I’m a thief in the night And you’re looking good tonight Girl you’re all I’m thinking of Cuz you’re the object of my love So don’t be alarmed now Cuz you’re safe from harm Let your doubt and despair go Cuz I’m in complete control If you try to conceal it I’ll find and steal it So surrender the love you hold And give me your heart and soul I’m a thief in the night And you’re looking good tonight Girl you’re all I’m thinking of Cuz you’re the object of my love I’m a thief in the night And I'll take whatever I like Girl you’re all I’m thinking of Cuz you’re the object of my love

Mad Love 04:11
She must be crazy Complete insanity For loving me unconditionally Still she comes over And crawls into bed with me And I can do anything that I want to her Cuz I know that I've got her wrapped around my finger With this mad love She likes to drink coffee Smokes menthol cigarettes If she can't see me she gets upset When I hold her near me She intoxicates herself with my scent And I can do anything that I want to her Cuz I know that I've got her wrapped around my finger I've conjured something mystical like a sorcerer Or a warlock who uses spells and magical elixirs That induce mad love Her passion's so intense That she ignores all common sense Knocking her right off her axis And I know just how she gets When bites down on her lower lip And how her back sweats when she climaxes High on endorphins It's so easy to make her laugh Cuz she's in the palm of my hand And when she draws Punnett squares To see what color eyes our kids would have I can do anything that I want to her Cuz I know that I've got her wrapped around my finger With this mad love Mad Love Mad Love Mad Love

She got class and she got style When she’s wearing nothing but a smile Mischievous grin she guilty as sin So c’mon boy and stay a while When she's in your hands she'll obey the command That's hardwired in her circuitry So come get your thrills and do what you will Cuz she’ll live out all your fantasies She gets off when she’s turned on gets high on being young She loves to do dirty things She’ll hold you in her sway and will blow you away She’s a pretty little machine Her skin is smooth she really grooves And is always eager to please She’s built like a creature with feminine features That’s quick to her hands and knees She’ll treat you like a god give you what you want Cuz that’s what she’s programmed to do But out of no place her love will get erased And boy she’ll forget all about you About you She gets off when she’s turned on gets high on being young She loves to do dirty things She’ll hold you in her sway and will blow you away She’s a pretty little machine She gets off when she’s turned on gets high on being young She loves to do dirty things She’ll hold you in her sway and will blow you away She’s a pretty little machine She’s a pretty little machine She’s a pretty little machine She’s a pretty little machine A pretty little machine

Rising Sun 04:04
Twilight fades in the solstice of winter But I still see the light you shine I fight in vain against the darkness that enters As I’m consumed by the night I think back to when you were my lover With Eskimo kisses and ecstasy But that’s all passed and now you’re with another Shining for him like you shined for me But he’ll never love you The way that I do No matter how much he tries And you won’t believe How much my heart bleeds When all I can see is the rising sun in your eyes In disarray I cling to hope to no avail Until I’m broken down and numb I waste away as I slowly grow pale Waiting for a day that’ll never come But he’ll never love you The way that I do No matter how much he tries And you won’t believe How much my heart bleeds When all I can see is the rising… See the rising… See the rising sun in your eyes He’ll never love you The way that I do No matter how much he tries And you won’t believe How much my heart bleeds When all I can see is the rising sun in your eyes In your eyes In your eyes In your eyes

Avarice 04:00
Hush my love don't say another word Cuz there’s nothing more for you to say You want an extended break and that’s absurd But it’s clear your mind's already made Just know you’re my possession That belongs to me and no one else My desire takes control of me An infatuation that I can’t resist Filling my heart with envy There’s no escaping this avarice I don’t know if I can explain Something I don’t even understand But a poisoned feeling flows through my veins Knowing you’re in the arms of another man Cuz you are my possession That belongs to me and no one else My desire takes control of me An infatuation that I can’t resist Filling my heart with envy There’s no escaping this avarice Does he look like me? Does he laugh like me? Do you think about him all the time? Does he talk like me? Does he taste like me? Do you enjoy his scent like you did mine? My desire takes control of me An infatuation that I can’t resist Filling my heart with envy There’s no escaping this My desire takes control of me An infatuation that I just can’t resist Filling my heart with envy Cuz I’m a slave to this avarice
10.
If I called you would you listen? As I shared with you all my darkest fears Cuz there's a part of me that's missing So could you give me the time Would you lend me your ears For way too long now I've blamed myself For things I couldn't control As I've been trapped in my own private hell I built to fix my broken soul Every day is an endeavor Few would ever know Still it's hard keepin' it together As the walls slowly crack And the fault lines start to show I realize now there are many things That I'll never be Still I can't help but to think I've been denied my destiny I've done nothing wrong as far as I can tell Put in a position where I can only fail And I feel helpless as I watch this Fall to pieces For way too long now I've blamed myself For things I couldn't control As I've been trapped in my own private hell I built to fix my broken soul Life around me starts to wither Leaves senescence and curl And I can feel the cold of winter As Persephone descends... Persephone descends to the underworld

Afterglow 03:54
Searching through the graveyard As night begins to fall I’ve got no idea where you are But can hear your voice call A whisper from the dying Tearing me in two And there is no denying That I’ve been haunted by the ghost of you Cuz I’ve got a hole within my soul I can feel it in my bones And wherever you go I will follow As I fade into your afterglow There’s no bringing you back From this valley of the dead So with white and purple lilacs I light candles instead Still I see you when I’m dreaming But you fade as morning comes And I know these words I’m singing To you will always be unsung Cuz I’ve got a hole within my soul I can feel it in my bones And wherever you go I will follow As I fade into your afterglow So far away You’re so far away So far away You’re so far away Cuz I’ve got a hole within my soul I can feel it in my bones And wherever you go I will follow As I fade into your afterglow Your afterglow
