Behind the Scenes

Location

Wrapped under draped curtains

My audience on hold 

My hands are cuffed behind me

Unable to remove my blindfold

 

Soon a light will lead me 

Come to clean me, let it feel me

Even if it hurts

 

For now I lounge dazed, bewildered

A risen bear in midwinter

 

I fill my mind with crime before I rest so I can sleep my best

A wanted girl of wonders comes to life

See her wander

Looking for us, looking for you

 

A rebel screams inside me

Wanting to scatter the senses

Alone I'll never release this 

Your love is my dependent

 

When the restraints disappear, and the light comes near

The stage will be left clear

I will no longer know fear

Because your love will be here
