TANGO NOIR

 TANGO NOIR
1. TANGO NOIR


TANGO NOIR
(verse 1)
in my diary a full page a day
I dedicate to my lovely
an obsession known to the bed where I lay
a hideaway

you do not even know
I look at the sky thinking of you
the one bet holding me back
is I know what I lack
the determination
to make a confession
if there's such a thing as destiny
why should I make an admission?

suitors come in suits and bring gifts
I turn them away bravely
with your obvious lonesome self
ahh, stay lonely

(chorus)
maybe I will drink of that sweet poison
but only then, do you decide to kiss my red lips
and partake in this tragic fate, a mystery, right?
do you know, what I could consume you in?
a destiny, worse than a tango danced sadly
and yet you go, be the knight that saves my night, so gracefully
(end chorus)

(verse 2)
just a dreaming woman
that wants romance at night
billowing white curtains and a silhouette
of the man she loves

if anyone can hear this prayer from me
I want time to stop
that moment when he touched my hair tenderly
ahh, mystery

(chorus)
maybe you will, be the one to marry first
leaving me, behind in the dust
rose-colored, glasses on my face, I give you space
a parody, of the card game where we gambled
and placed bets on who would confess
it took you, walking away from my body, to end me
(end chorus)

(chorus)
maybe I will drink of that sweet poison
but only then, do you decide to kiss my red lips
and partake in this tragic fate, a mystery, right?
do you know, what I could consume you in?
a destiny, worse than a tango danced sadly
and yet you go, be the knight that saves my night, so gracefully
(end chorus)

Unrequited Finally

Unrequited Finally 1. Unrequited Finally Unrequited Finally (verse 1) you and I together made a solemn unspoken oath a secret never told is the very one best kept I shy away when our eyes suddenly meet like I've got a secret identity that I've just got to keep I long to get out of here and feel the spring air at night I can dream only of your long hair we snuck off when no one was looking now you act like you don't know me what is all of this? (chorus) I like that, but why do I like that? my first fantasy and my last taste of love my feelings awakened and fell from above my heart burst from happiness like an attack I like that, but why do I like that? you moved on, but I'm still stuck just chop it up to being romantically sick this is what's called unrequited love finally (end chorus) (verse 2) the lips you kissed are forever sealed shut but they pinned me against the tiled bathroom wall your friends raised eyebrows and asked questions you said not to worry because ...

Mystery Butterfly

Mystery Butterfly 1. Mystery Butterfly Mystery Butterfly (verse 1) open your shiny eyes in the silent night I swooped down into the mystery sneaking in alleyways without any sound of footsteps crouching my back in seductive black cat pose the moonlight carries a shadow on its back of my silhouette "come here" it smiles as it beckons to me it's tempting a contour of desire squirms in the sleepless city it wanders in the guise of a guardian angel to me it holds piece of love without a place to go in its arm as if they're precious treasures as you fall to sleep blissfully are you somewhere having a good dream ignorantly being happy as anyone would want the starry sky kisses you it's time for good children to go to bed to sleep (chorus) don't look at me, don't catch me don't try to be what's become of me I'm a butterfly who got lost in the dark freely singing with monochrome wings no one can see I'm hiding away in your heavy heart (end chorus) ...
