Let me love you,
like you always wanted.
like you always feared.
Let me near,

Don't rush away.
My name is your curse,
But yours is my prayer.
For what I've done,

I have no remorse -
yet I want to be saved
by my white rose.
My deadly sword,

only you are the one
who can help me out;
you are my salvation,
no doubt.

I want to stay
where you are,
never leave that place.

But it exists
only in my dreams.
I abandon you every day

In the sheer cold,
in the bitter dark,
to the dagger-sharp yearning.

Yet you know:
I shall be returning.
