Out of the sea you rise, fierce with the atrocities of day,
You rage till you have burnt the gentle shadows.
Give me a darkened corner, give me a place to hide,
Give me strength enough that I may turn the tide of your straight lances;
Those which pierce and sear.
Carcinogenic love you give.
And if I chose to live
And chase you until I stand at my start,
You rise again behind me.
Governing life through misinterpreted time.
We give not this love to her with a kinder face,
Who you chase with your light
For she is following us
And gives me my dark corners,
That I may tend my burns in peace.
