Duress

And when the dawn begins to creep

Sunlight finds you in a heap

And how you wish that you could sleep

Forget the lies that you've been told

You think you're settin' free your soul

But you're really gettin' old

You've dreamt of divin' in the sea

Your outstretched arms in front of me

And how you wished that you could breathe

In the grip of ecstasy

When the shadows follow me

And the night won't set me free

You wish someone could love you less

Longing for that one caress

I see you sink under duress

And when you wanna kill it dead

You let it throttle you instead
