Analysis of Dark Savior
At least I knew who I was
But these shadows seem to know me better
I wish I could know you
The shadows seem to shy away from your beauty
Would you keep me under your wing?
Your sweet scent fills my senses
I know that you are my dark protecting angel
Even if you don’t know my appreciation
Or that you are my savior from this shadowed hell
Each glance for each second
Equals an hour of sunlight
The sunlight of your eyes and smile
Keeping me warm
Until you turn the corner
And the shadows seep back into place
