The Girl With The Supernova In Her Eye

Comfort in Understanding

I want to f**k an angel or sleep with the devil
It's possible I found both inside of her
But I don't care which it is anymore
Desire has grown so strong that
Impulse has become a fading punch line
I'm surrounded by so much righteousness
That the wrong of the world doesn't matter at all
What does anyone know about the true meaning of 'try'
I give myself to the girl with the supernova in her eye

And oh how long I have pined for such freedom
She gave me a taste of it from inside her
Pure addiction seeping deep into me
Wrestling my consciousness
Forcing submission by smiling so sweet
All I did was take one step towards her
Her gravity has pulled me in the rest of the way
How sweet her embrace will feel until the day I die
I belong with the girl with the supernova in her eye

To say that I couldn't see this coming all along
Is a terrible lie that I will live forever
Because I've left all the world behind
The imperceptibly slow decay
I've recognized and juxtaposed myself
Against its backdrop most meaningless
And I'm too humble to admit I was always above it
So in my own contradiction forever I will lay and lie
Eternity beside the girl with the supernova in her eye

I like how it started off aggressively and ended sweetly.
