"The simpler thing is to not be smart
and use your mind to determine what lengths
I descended with you into paradise
into an empty house of God, from time to time
I'll say the words from the page, to spare you your sight
which you will have to have, as you steer your ship
it's adrift, you are lost on the tide
all your foremost mentors did not think twice
they abandoned you alone
to your destiny, shackled
There is only one who adores you: Me!
There is only one who makes your mouth water: Me!
There is only one who adores you: Me!
Scarediness is not tantamount to finality."

Late to the game, as usual. I don't know this song, but I can't imagine the actual lyrics are more poetic than your recreation.
Thank you snortingmarmots!
You know, for a lot of these paraphrases, that could be true. This song's pretty dang poetic though!
But I'm totally lying if I said I don't shoot for that!
