I was wearing a lot of heavy things lately... feeling chilly for some reason...
I wore that black hat of sorrow, quite mysterious that made me look
I wore my thick cape of lonliness, quite strong that for a hook
I wore those high heels of vanity,
so pricey I must seemed
I wore those leather gloves of masochism
so venomous indeed
And underneath the scarlet dress of those that loved me,
tremendous fools
And under that lacy corset of those that fought me,
quite sharp their tools
and then we met
I took my hat politely off and then you stole a smile
Let off my cape, a sudden wartmth it must have been awhile
I threw my shoe to run with you and felt so simple again
I ripped my gloves and touched your face and then there was no pain
My scarlet dress turned lily white, a bride seeking for shrift
I loosed my lace breathed in the night your smell invaluable gift
and now I'm naked
You stripped me from everything I'd ever met and god how much I love you...
