‘Daggers to the eyes’ (Vampires wouldn’t know true love if it bit them in the neck)

This one’s something fun, experimental. The lyrics and chaos of the song more than the video helped it come to life. But that sure influenced too!

- -

Offer me a drag, I wouldn’t refuse. (non-smokers do anything for the attention) Lock your caution eyes to my darkening glare, from across the unsatisfactory heave of a going-nowhere party. Slumped on the floor, a pile of vinyl surrounds, tracing over the music that makes you tingle, choose it low-lit silent film score and god knows you’ll have me snared.

Shadows of lust will move through us as conversation is all me on you (take this night to be the one you give it up and lose control.) Violence will pulse in the way you brush my fingers on our streetside walk. You’re all a tease. I’m all yours. (but you’re mine, girl)

Tremble in a twilight’s howl as we clamber rushing streams and forbidden branches snap sharp under our toes. We’re suckers for the thrill and I’d jump the reality plank or carve stars with my submission to your every will. Stare me in hard and move those lips close anything to whisper to my shaking hands as they unravel rose thorns to ensnare us in a desperate love that stabs and scars.

My senses surge to get out of my head before I dance a moonlight serenade over your twinkling figure with wolverish movement, falling for every word you ever said. (before you’ve yet to breathe a syllable)

This obsession screws with my coronation street dreams of corner shop content and as you turn away from my possessive embrace, I can’t help but surrender in welcoming you to your worst nightmare.

For I’m in blood deep this time darling. And there’s just no telling what might happen next.

    Sometimes when you write about love, even though it’s not connected to us, I like to imagine it’s about us, and so certain parts of your writing will always give me goosebumps. Especially parts where you write ‘my girl’ etc etc.
