Out of the darkness you came
One hand holding a sword
The other reaching for mine
You say that I should come with you
To trust in you
That everything will be fine
But so many questions left unanswered
I don't know if I should go with you
Tell me who you are
What brought you here?
If you want me to take your hand
Then tell me what I need to here
I don't trust you
Even though you say I should
What is it that brought you here?
Why have you come for me?
You say that we are lovers
Don’t assume that I know
I have never known you before
Why should I know you now?
You are being allusive
Evading the ever present questions
Saying you need my help
But not saying what it is you need
I’ll help you if I can
But don't think I am able
You trust me so easily
Though you need to know
That my mind is going
I cannot help you
For I cannot help myself
Tell me who you are
I don't believe you need me
Why did you really come looking for me?
I truly don't know who you are
Even after all this time
I don't know I should trust you
Though something in me says I should
What is it you want?
I need to know
Tell me now
Before I turn around
I’ll walk out that door
Without a backward glance
Will you then take me at my word?
I don't think that you will
But maybe you should prove me wrong
