Originally written in Los Angeles while going stir crazy. First recorded with The Burning Symphony. The song crawls deep into the mind of a still living Anabelle Lee. The darkness that brought us together is her subconscious desire to fill the gap her long lost father left in her life.
lyrics
Your father's tattooed arms would hold you,
Comfort you,
You've searched your whole life
For some kind of fragment
I've got some tattoos,
I've got one on each wrist,
I got one on each arm
Even one across my heart
So baby come touch me
Anabelle Lee
What darkness has lead you to me?
I'll stand up, I'll speak with conviction
Say "Love's an addiction!
And all my affection!"
Strange chemicals race
When I smell flowers in your hair
Anabelle Lee
What devils have lead you to me?
Love becomes obsession
And there are broken bottles of wine
And there are broken vases of flowers
And you're all mine! You're all mine!
You're all mine!
When we drive in my car
We look through windows
Exploding with light and noise
Shifting patterns in passing crowds
I've got one hand on the wheel
The others caressing your left thigh
And Anabelle Lee
Not even Jesus could save you from me
