learn to love it later

candlemass flames light my way and the magic guides me forward. catching me by my toes and pushing me on to better things.

the blues play thick through the night and carry me off into a dream where people play games in the darkness. i can hear you behind me. breathing softly. i follow the music and reach a safe place. with neon signs and air so heavy it slows my heart to a quiet rhythm. and as i sway with the heat i am comforted, by violet shadows and smoky clothes that bathe me. and hide me. and i find myself again. calm, focused and looking forward to the dawn.

i close my eyes and you say "you like it now, but you'll learn to love it later"
