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 that 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 break 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, just say, "Look my way"
