ransom

This is the first official lyric the poet has released for a piece by the newly renamed and configured band (formerly known as "The Gods of Love", now "Amomancer").

ransom

take my heart for ransom
I will pay your asked price twice

I want to build a castle wall with us inside, against the fall
of kingdoms, countries, Gods and crown, a flood of oceans can never drown.
you are an angel, sent to my aid, to end my follies, the fool's parade
of shadow lovers, of fractured stone, of deserts vast, where gardens had grown.

I want to kiss you in the light, to show the heavens my true delight
and share my passion for you and life, I am your husband, you are my wife,
and more than labels, and more than names, we are the pictures and the frames,
we are the words and poetry that melt the stones that they run free

take my heart for ransom
I will pay your asked price twice
