Captured
Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)
You give me your hand
I still hesistate
Cause I don't know
What will await
I touch your fingers
You grab me strongly
And take to your side
From which i can't go back
Even if i struggle
It's no use now
I am defeated
By your black crown
I am closed in your arms
No way to escape
I'd like to fight
But not against fate
Together inside
A prison of black wings
Our hands are chained
With unbreakable rings
I am nor princess nor slave
We are equal
But I still feel so weak
When you are around
You are the purest poison
Coming from my heart
Which controlls my moves
So we won't be apart
All becouse of that hand
That brought me to you
If I'd escape
You'd pursue
But I don't have any strengh
To fight your affection
Forever in dance
Within devils advection
