The Wishmaker's Vortex
Watch me die in the dead of night
And be revived in the morning light
An endless cycle, I don't know how to stop it
From our disaster, my endearment I abolish

You speak of love as though requesting a wishmaker's assistance
Fantasies granted for the sake of your enjoyment
I ask for your love like suffering a paralyzed existence
Transmogrified to stone for my failed attainment

Aren't you grateful for the thousand temples and secret gardens?
Aren't you thankful they're built as my great eternal laudations?
Haven't you realised I've demolished and rebuilt every single one of them for you?
Haven't you put in sight I've done it a thousand times just to see us through?

I don't know how to stop being your prisoner
I can't see the line, even when I'm taller
I don't know how to leave you as my master
I can't draw the line, still none the wiser

Crazy to think you were the one to adore me once
Now you just drain my magic every time I'm summoned
Crazy to think I never had enough holding on this long
But I promise myself I'll have these chains shattered

No longer will I be trapped in this vicious vortex
Not if I can break this cycle
No more will I get bewitched by this swirling hex
Not if I can tear this spiral

This time, I won't die when the moon climbs
So watch me survive when the sun blinds
A long-awaited freedom, someway I will obtain it
A true humane relation, someday I will accomplish
