Mantissa

from Stockholm by Hanlon's Razor

lyrics

Mantissa

Did you merely shake the world
To see what would come tumbling
The walls and the foundations
That have been there everlong

No ill-intent or cruelty
Yet a destroyer of worlds
With wilful shame about the pain inflicted
Dealing hurt and hope alike

It was never a game although worth playing
I have no regrets for the pain received
Just a glimmer of hope for one more of your kisses
Is enough to bind me forever to you

You seem amazed at the power you wield
To change the course of life itself
Gaze with increasing disbelief
At the soul that falls at your feet

No heralding or warning
Yet a danger all the same
You took my heart although you did not wish it
Bound me with bonds I cannot break

It was never a game although worth playing
I have no regrets for the pain received
Just a glimmer of hope for one more of your kisses
Is enough to bind me forever to you
