Overdose (Of Love)

 

I’ve taken an overdose,

pumped into my veins

the fever of love,

now I’m going insane.

It’s deadening sense

and destroying my brain –

what the hell do I care?

but I can’t stand the pain.

 

You…..

take my breath away

Love…..

is there no other way?

 

The dragon of darkness

tells you to stay,

as morning breaks

and the light snatches you away.

Night’s only a day away -

searching for a fantasy

which is slaughtered

by the day.

 

You…..

take my breath away

Love…..

is there no other way?

 

In the darkness

of a fruitless dream,

I hear a voice

as it soars into a scream.

The voice is yours

and I awake in fright,

reach out and turn on the bedroom light,

thinking of your love

As it gets me

through the night

 

You……..

take my breath away.

Love…….

is there no other way?
