Lyrics
Series= It is expected, an oath by blood to hold the tome And the starlight passes overhead Fuels all the skills I've honed I am a guardian, a watcher of these ancient rites Yet I find myself drawn from that path On those dazzling moonlit nights

Let me hold you, keep you close to me I long to hear your voice But, dearest, I know better now I must give you this choice

I can give you everything you need Or do you want to hear me plead? Just look my way, just look my way Is there something more that I don't know That you won't say 'til we've both grown cold? Just say, "Please, stay. Look my way"

This unspoken contract, a deed we forged for mutual gain If that's all this was when you're not here What is this rooted pain? I don't care that you're of lower station Or primed to sate my dark temptations Why can't you understand? Let me explain

And I'm terrified, as I cry To make these feelings true What's left for me and my broken heart If I cannot have you?

Unless it's me And no matter what in this world I could give It's not enough To get through the walls you've conjured up to live Is this what you feel? Scorned by a realm that cannot comprehend What you are So, I'll grant you this mercy, this bind on our souls needs to end

I will try to make amends For making you means to an end So, look my way, please, look my way And if there's something more that I don't know I'll save us both before we grow cold If you'll stay, and just say, "Look my way" It is expected, an oath by blood to hold the tome And the starlight passes overhead, fuels all the skills I've honed I am a guardian, a watcher of these ancient rites Yet I find myself drawn from that path on those dazzling moonlit nights
 * -|Original=

Let me hold you Keep you close to me I long to hear your voice Come now, my little impish plaything We both made our choice

I can give you everything you need Or do you want to hear me plead? Just look my way Just look my way

Is there something more that I don't know? That you won't say 'til we've both grown cold? Just say, please stay Look my way

This unspoken contract, a deed we forged for mutual gain If that's all this was, when you're not here, what is this rooted pain? I don't care that you're of lower station, or primed to sate my dark temptations Why can't you understand? Let me explain!

'Cause I'm terrified, as I cry to make these feelings true What's left for me in this broken house if I cannot have you?

I'll give you everything you need What more is there, what more to plead? Just look my way Just look my way What can there be that I don't know? Will you never tell or be so bold? Just say, please stay Look my way

Unless it's me... and no matter what in this world I could give It's not enough to get through the walls you've conjured up to live Is this how she'd feel? Abandoned, all alone and left to fend For herself, for some semblance of happiness that doesn't have to end?

I will try to make amends For making you means to an end So, look my way Please look my way And if there's something more that I don't know? I'll save us both before we grow cold If you'll stay and just say... Look my way

Look my way Look my way
