Esse Quam Videri - Mordred

Faster than the earth is turning

Looking up my eyes are burning

At night alone I’m walking

Black cat clever stalking

In the grotto impatient waiting

Before long I see your face and

Whisper a word of greeting

Secret lover’s midnight meeting

Chill wind our bodies biting

Whipping round like bolts of lightning

Full moon to some is frightning

Senses reeling pulses tightning

In your arms passion rising

Looking deep into your eyes and

Body movements hypnotizing

Scratching biting screaming crying

As I’m raised out of my body

I’m looking down from above

To be rather than to seem

Eyes meet no word is spoken

Bruised backs and bodies broken

Sitting back the pipe we’re token

Bullets shot barrels smoken

Hot sweat our bodies gleaming

In our heat and passion steaming

Laid back to sleep I’m sinking

Of the nights events I’m thinking

As I’m raised out of my body

I’m looking down from above

To be rather than to seem

As I’m raised out of my body

I’m looking down from the sky

To seem rather than to be
