"The future is bulletproof, the aftermath is secondary"

Your heart is a golden lock box
And just ahead lies your key.
It's glistening in the sunset,
Just beyond the willow trees.
Just trek ahead, and listen to
The gentle, blowing breeze.
The sun will warm your withered soul
And soon, you will be free.

Your body is a gentle kiss
From angels up above.
Soft and pure is your fair skin
And tender is your love.
Hush now, my dear, and let me be
Your loving shoulder now.
Let teardrops turn to faerie dust.
Come to the stage and take your bow.
