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 from 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?
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 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
Look my way...
