Te sammukha.

May the spawns of asuras perish

by the hands of my sacred masters.

These nine enchanted rounds

took much to craft,

as you may have witnessed.

Mind how you spend them.

I am not the only soul

to assist you.

He deem me his mother,

and himself my son.

Thong.

Where is your mommy?

You smell good.

I'm good at doing laundry.

I shall lend you a hand

so that it may be finished with haste...

for I may

linger with you all the longer this morn

before you betake yourself to work.

You can be sweet

and affectionate, I see.

I kinda want you

to have periods more often

if you're gonna be this cute and affectionate.

You do go on.

I'm kidding.

Who'd want you to be in pain?

There are many sides of me yet to be discovered, my dearest.

Should you linger with me until that very day,

you shall behold

all of me.

Let's see.

Do you really want me to discover it?

Can I see?

I told you afore

that I shall never halt you.

Hm...

Do you mean it?

Let's see.

Let me prove that

you really won't stop me.

I'll stay here with you

for a long, long time.

You promised?

Since we've already

made a mess on the bedsheets...

should we...

pick up where we left off?

Never once have I halted you, my dearest.

Really?

As I said afore,

I shall do the laundry myself.

It's okay.

I'm happy to do it for you.

Hey,

I may not look it,

but I'm really good at doing laundry.

Look at this.

Here,

the stains

are nowhere to be found.

I thank you

for not being aghast.

Of course.

What is that lovely smell?

Is it from here?

Let's see...mmm.

Ow!

Blushing?

It is infused with flowers.

I mingle flowers already offered to the sacred masters

with scented water,

dry them, and use them to scent my garments.

No wonder

every time I get close to you,

I can smell...

something so heavenly.

Turns out,

it's...

the smell of flowers.

Come on,

let me put it to the test.

Ow!

My beloved!

Do you find it pleasing?

If so,

I shall turn them into a potpourri for you to cherish.

Whenever the scent greets you,

you shall dream of me by your side without end.

Thanks.

Well...

that sounds good.

When I go out and about,

it's gonna feel like...

you're with me at all times.

Is this it?

Smells good.

It smells exactly like you.

But...

this...

smells better.

Ow...

Who are you?

Do you not remember me?

Bulan.

Is everything alright?

It is, indeed.

Go inside, my dearest.

Jeez,

it took me an hour to hang them out to dry.

It's too damn windy, my beloved.

There goes your dearest's masterpiece.

My dearest,

let us go inside.

Sure.

Let's go, my beloved.

♫Along with ghostly spirits hounding relentlessly,♫

♫May the maras be ravaged and perish completely♫

♫Vindictive spirits, tyrannical psyches,♫

♫Meant to betray, slaughter, and invade,♫

♫Were any souls to brush against my karmic soulmate,♫

♫They shall bury the thought of returning to their realm♫

♫With incantation and virtue as shield,♫

♫At my feet, they shall surrender and kneel,♫

♫Chanting, "Sadhu," of their own will♫

I'm Lom,

Master's chief disciple.

How fortunate that

the ceremony is being held on a day when the sanctum is closed.

This way, I wouldn't have to babysit the sanctum

when you and Ms. Ladfah

go make merit together.

And where is Ladfah?

Why has she allowed you here all alone, dear Lom?

Ugh, my mom?

It hurts just talking about it.

Mom told me she'd meet me at your sanctum,

but she ended up bailing.

Here,

she asked me to make merit on her behalf.

At what point can one make merit on behalf of another?

It can be done.

She already wired the money!

Look, I've bought so many things for merit-making.

There's more

in the car.

Boom!

I'm planning to make tons of merit,

so maybe I'll be blessed enough

to finally be taken.

I'm so fed up with

being single,

lonely,

and forlorn.

How many times have I told you afore

that you shall find your mate

when the time is ripe?

Before then,

your paths shall always miss, never to cross.

Alright,

I know.

But...

people's lives

are driven by love.

Without it,

you have no strength to eat,

walk,

or sleep.

There's no strength to do anything!

By the way...

you look so healthy,

with...

glowing skin.

Anything that's been keeping you satisfied?

Your mouth

is, indeed, as big as ever.

Whoa...

I was just teasing you.

You're just...

so brutal.

By the way,

who is she?

Where is she from?

I'm asking you, Master.

Where...

are you from?

I'm...

in a little bit of trouble,

so...

I'm staying with Master for the time being.

I too am Master's disciple.

Typically...

Master wouldn't just let any disciple stay at her sanctum.

I don't think that's the case.

Disparate deeds, disparate occasions.

I deem it appropriate that she stays,

so I let her.

Then, could I please spend the night here?

I miss Thong,

and I wanna gossip

in case...

I've...missed something somewhere.

Could I, dear Master?

How could you not?

You too are my disciple, dear Lom.

Do spend the night here.

Do not waste your money on a hotel room.

I shall ready you a chamber.

Then...

I'd better get going to work.

I'm already running late.

Heading out.

Dear Lom.

Yes?

Mind your limits when you trifle.

Keep chaos at bay,

or they might say you do not know any better.

Oops...

I was just being playful.

You're being way too harsh.

I just...

wanna know

what your karmic soulmate

is like.

Well...

how do you see her?

Are we of one mind?

Mm...

So...

Does she know

what awaits her

as your karmic soulmate?

I traveled into town to make a few purchases

for almsgiving at the grand ceremony;

thus, I am paying you a visit, Venerable Mother.

Is there anything you desire?

I shall make a purchase for you.

I am well.

I am in need of nothing.

Dear Lom is still as lively as ever.

Let's see.

You're such a cutie!

She has bloomed into womanhood

but still behaves like a child.

You too, my beautiful daughter.

There is still

a childlike glimmer in your eyes,

and your radiant face

makes you look younger than thirty.

I suppose

you are in love, my beautiful daughter.

I wonder if you are content,

both your beautiful self

and the karmic soulmate whom you have just found.

It is indeed what you and Father have taught me.

In sorrow,

it is agony.

In happiness,

it is euphoria.

Life is not nearly as simple as it once was,

but I yearn not for the past.

Were there to be any hurdles along the way,

I wish to triumph over them with her.

Had your father been alive,

he would have slapped his knee with delight.

So what is the reason...

for that sorrowful look on your visage, my beautiful daughter?

Should something be on your mind,

pray tell,

so that your burden may be eased.

Have you heard a word of him?

Ever since he left the late master's sanctum,

barely

a whisper about him has reached my ears.

I bore him,

but his frame is his own,

and so is his mind.

I could not halt him.

My beautiful daughter, you inquired of him.

Do you have anything on your mind?

I dreamed of him, Mother.

I am worried

that he might do evil.

Mother...

About the sorcerous tiger,

know you my heart well enough to believe

that I never mused to usurp it?

The sorcerous tiger

is not to be bequeathed to any soul.

The late master must have bequeathed it to you

for a sensible reason.

It is your duty

to hallow it.

My beautiful daughter,

worry not.

Beyond all else,

whatever shall happen

shall happen.

I trust that

your virtues

will shield her

from any harm.

Even when I ought to commit heinous karma,

I shall protect her.

[Phop Phra Police Station]

Do you know why I called you in?

It's about Sergeant Piak and me

trespassing on private property

to capture a suspect, sir.

And what else?

About Sergeant Piak and me

operating across districts

without permission, sir.

So you realize all that.

And why did you still proceed?

Or is someone backing you up?

Sarge, since you've been here a long time,

I trusted you with taking care of Lieutenant Peem.

And what is this?

What kind of senior are you?

Why didn't you stop her?

I am sorry, Chief.

I'll take disciplinary action against you, Sarge.

It is not his fault, sir.

He was just following my orders.

If you're taking disciplinary action,

you should take it against me,

not him.

Do you want to be a hero?

Don't think I won't punish you

out of respect for your parents.

I'm not here to be anyone's hero.

I'm here

to fulfill my duty as a police officer,

which is to pursue and capture criminals,

even outside our jurisdiction.

And if my intention to capture a criminal

means disobeying your orders, Chief,

I'll accept whatever punishment you give me.

Keep up that cockiness.

Please don't!

I'm begging you!

Can we talk this out calmly?

Do whatever you want.

You can even punish me

or cut my salary.

I'll accept whatever comes my way!

If you're so capable,

close this case.

What are you saying, sir?

I'm saying I'm officially assigning you two

to work on this case.

Go, deploy to the area fast

and monitor the Krua Tan Procession.

Understood, sir!

Yes, sir.

Sarge,

what are they doing?

Oh.

Those are baskets called "Guay."

It's Da day, a preparation day.

It's the day before the merit-making event,

so the villagers are weaving Guay baskets

to put the offerings in.

It's just...

Simply put, they're like woven bamboo baskets for offerings to monks.

Mm...

Yeah, and tomorrow is the Krua Tan Procession.

There's a lottery called "Salak Bhat,"

where a monk calls you

to make an offering if your lot is drawn.

So it's like a New Year's lucky draw, Sarge?

Something like that.

It's merit-making without targeting a specific monk,

so you gain immense merit in return.

Lieutenant,

are you interested?

Let's not, Sarge.

I don't think

it's appropriate to play around

while we're on patrol.

Please do it, Lieutenant.

We just encountered something evil the other day.

Let's go.

Come on.

Is it a good idea, Sarge?

Of course.

How is making merit not a good idea?

But I've never done this, Sarge.

Neither have I.

Legend has it that

if a daughter of a household pounds chilli paste loudly,

she is ready for marriage.

Ugh!

I couldn't be more ready.

When will I get to marry, Master?

I told you afore not to be in haste.

Soon enough, you shall find them.

Wow...

If you already know this much,

just spill already.

Ugh.

Next year, I'll turn 25,

the ominous age.

I'll probably have bad luck every other day.

Dear Lom,

the bird-of-paradise yantra I inked on you,

apart from turning every word you utter into wealth and fortune,

shall also make your words come true, as though you were a prophet.

Thus, should you speak of goodness,

good things shall come to you,

but should you speak thoughtlessly,

bad things shall also come your way.

Hey...

are you two cooking?

We are preparing supper for the almshouse tomorrow.

What have you brought in your hands, my dearest?

Little Guay baskets.

I wove them myself

so we can go make merit

at the temple tomorrow.

Well, well.

Are you two making merit by yourselves?

I'm here, too.

I don't see a Guay basket you wove for me.

How inconsiderate.

Dear Lom.

Oops...

I was just...

joking.

Whoever you intended to give it to...

let it be so, Officer.

Fine work for your first endeavor.

I shall treasure tomorrow's alms

in this little Guay basket you made.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

And...

is there anything I can help you with?

Here.

Did you...

weave it for me?

Wow!

I'm not that inconsiderate.

Just take it.

Now, you have...

something to carry your stuff when we go make merit tomorrow.

You're a good person at heart.

No wonder

you're Master's karmic soulmate.

Look,

I worked so hard on it.

Isn't it neat?

A red birthmark!

If you place your hand next to Master's,

they'll form...

a perfect heart?

Mm.

Whoa...

Lom,

can I ask you something?

Mm.

The term "karmic soulmate,"

what does it mean?

"Karmic soulmates"

are two souls bound by the merits of past lives

and destined to meet each other,

love each other,

and...

enhance each other's virtues.

Look,

your existence

makes Master a woman of boundless might and virtue.

But...

on the other hand,

Master's weakness

has started to take shape.

But don't you worry.

Master will protect you.

She's not gonna let any harm come to you.

I'm not worried about myself.

I'm worried about her.

I also wanna shield her...

from any harm.

So...

what are you waiting for?!

Why haven't you asked my master to be your girlfriend?

Well...

I...

don't know how to explain this,

but our relationship...

is rather complicated.

Besides,

I don't even know if...

this Master of yours

feels the same way I do.

Before all this,

a wealthy person

brought cash

and land title deeds

to ask for her hand in marriage.

But she

reject it all,

saying,

"I shall only linger for my karmic soulmate,"

which is you!

If you want to define your relationship,

you have to do something.

Go ahead.

How do you mean, dear Lom?

I've been in an ambiguous relationship.

Without a clear label,

the other person could get confused, Master.

And do my actions

not speak plainly enough, then?

Are actions alone cutting it these days?

Words also matter.

If you don't wanna lose the lieutenant,

you have to give her some clarity, Master.

Then...

off I go.

Want to sit?

Hey.

You're still awake, right?

Hey...

It's just that...

I...

I mean...

I...

I wanna say that...

That...

- I... - Do say what you wish to.

I'm just gonna say...

Good night.

Sweet dreams

tonight.

Thong,

your mom is not killing it.

A full 100 points deducted.

What say you

of the attire I sewed for you?

Is it not a thing of beauty?

It is...

No,

I should say...

How ethereal, Master.

You meant...

the attire I sewed for you, did you not?

Come,

I shall dress you in perfume.

It's morning. Let's go to the temple!

Ooh...

Whoa... Wow!

What a beauty.

Then...

I will...

wait for you guys downstairs.

Master.

I bought so many desserts.

Let's go enjoy them downstairs.

Off I go now.

Thank you.

Can I write my little brother's name

on the paper as well?

[Pichapat Ruechakun]

Certainly,

though you have to specify

that the merits shall be dedicated

to the recovery of the wounded,

for if you merely write down the name,

the monks will chant a prayer for the deceased,

which is bad luck.

Ah...

I just learned something new.

So,

what am I supposed to write down?

[Pichapat Ruechakun, and alms on behalf of]

Then, you may write your brother's name

after this word.

Right here?

[Phuvaphatch Ruechakun]

All done.

Let us go inside.

- Dear Lom, follow along. - Alright.

Hello, Mom?

Pray tell, the name you would have me write down,

Ms. Ladfah.

Your name, Miss Tinee.

A little bird told me that your life's been sucking lately, no?

Who's that little bird?

Which one of my friends?

I will be sure to deal with them.

Don't mess with my informants.

Miss Tinee, I am serious.

Alright, alright.

[Ms. Natinee Tangjareon]

Ooh, it's okay.

Where is it?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Alright, Mom.

I'm gonna hurry and make merit now.

Thank you.

My folks

and all devoted laypeople,

the venerable masters and the monastic assembly,

and all novice monks

from every temple in the district

have now taken their seats at the Salak Bhat tables

around the ordination hall.

Next up,

my folks,

please check your ticket numbers.

The venerable sirs

will have the novice monks

call out the names to find the owners of the strips of paper.

If you hear your name,

or the name of the relative you wish to dedicate it to,

please bring the alms in your Guay basket

to the venerable sirs.

Dear Lom, are you departing for home already?

I have to drive to Chiang Rai

to return the car to Ms. Ladfah before flying to Bangkok.

Pray, keep well, dear Lom.

Dwell in the present.

Think not too much of the future.

As for your mate,

make no haste to find one.

Your soulmate was already born.

Soon enough, you shall meet them without endeavor.

Like how you met yours, right?

Ow!

Dwell not on my affairs.

Next year, you shall reach an age ending in 5,

which is not good.

Should any peril arise,

make haste to pay me a visit.

Do you understand?

Sure thing.

If anything happens,

I'll come see you as soon as possible.

But it'd be better

if we met at a merit-making ceremony

or...

a grand, auspicious ceremony.

Well then, I'll be going.

Have a safe journey.

Goodbye.

Let Master sniff your head once

for good fortune.

All done, Ms. Ladfah.

I am on my way to you.

I'm so hungry! Emphasis on "so."

I wanna eat Ms. Ladfah's chicken khao soi.

Don't try to sweet-talk me. [Ms. Ladfah (Mom)]

You only come home once in a while,

so whatever you want to eat,

I got you, Miss Tinee.

Argh!

Lom, what happened?!

I...

I... I think I....

I think I ran over something.

I'm hanging up.

A cat!

Help!

Please help the cat!

- Ma'am... - Hand it over.

You can let go.

Doctor,

how's the cat?

Right now, the cat has lost a lot of blood,

but our clinic doesn't have any blood on hand.

I'll make some calls and see if I can find some.

Doctor...

Mom...

I didn't mean to.

I accidentally ran over a kitten in the temple.

Calm down, Lom. Get a hold of yourself.

It might not be as bad as you think, sweetheart.

I'll call the owner of the place across the road.

It's also a veterinary clinic.

I heard they're running some errands in Tak.

They could probably help, sweetheart.

Alright, Mom.

Hey, Prasitthichok,

is that your mama?

- Is she? - Priew!

- Whoa, hey, staring at my face... - Hey, I think...

- Hey, calm down, Prasitthichok. - That balloon dart vendor is into me!

- Calm down. - You know, I only won one plush,

but they gave me one, two, three of them!

- Hey! - What do you think?

Are you taken, girl?

- I'm the sexist. - Just go.

You're out.

Hello, Dad.

You look like your dad...

Who the hell appeared in your dreams

and told you to dress like that?

This is Prada.

This is also Loewe.

Haven't heard of them.

Look at how you're dressed.

Don't your parents teach you anything?

Oh, my gosh.

- Brutal. - Oh, my gosh.

Priew,

what pets...do you have here?

- What, Dad? These are... - What pets?

My friends. They're my friends.

Yeah.

Yeah.

This one looks like an ancient frog.

What the hell is that haircut?

I thought you were a damn watercock.

Ever seen a watercock?

You kids...dress properly.

Got it?

Dad,

how about this?

Don't worry at all.

As for Priew,

I will...

take care...of her.

Take care of yourself first.

Go eat some food,

something nutritious, maybe veggies.

Then go take a big shit.

Go back to your spot.

Ugh, why are you giving her a hard time?

I don't even know how to cuss you brats out anymore.

And why did you mod your motorcycle, huh?!

- Sarge. - Is yours discolored?

- Yes? - No way.

Lieutenant, have you been changing for long?

Just now.

Why did you change?

You looked beautiful.

"Beautiful," my butt.

That outfit wasn't appropriate for work.

Right,

there's a stall that sells watermelon juice.

It's cold and refreshing.

I'll take you there. It's my go-to spot.

Wanna come with?

- Sure, Sarge. - Come on.

Have fun, Daddy.

- Can I come with? - Ugh! Where the hell are you going, Stephan?!

Lieutenant.

Lieutenant.

Lieutenant!

What, Sarge?

You scared me.

You were staring without even blinking.

What do you mean, "staring"?

I didn't even do anything.

Tubtim

is full to the brim with charm.

Right up my alley.

Real mommy milkers.

What an eyeful.

Jeez, goodness me, I'm dead.

There is no woman...

more ethereal than Master Bulan.

Exactly.

No one's as fierce

as Master Bulan.

Careful, or you'll spill it.

Here you go,

your sweetest,

juiciest,

most refreshing watermelon smoothies.

Aha.

Aha.

Here you go.

Wow.

That'd be 100 baht.

Watermelons are pricey these days.

Wanna help the local farmers?

Thank you.

Alright.

Mm-hm.

- Wow... - I'm heading out, Sarge.

Eek!

Watermelon, please.

Okay.

One for me, please.

How much?

However much you wish, my dearest.

Smells good...

But...

not as heavenly as your flower-infused scent.

Beautiful,

but not as ethereal as you are, Master.

You are uttering words like those of a drunk.

I suppose Sergeant Piak has taken you to drink liquor.

What liquor, Master?

I'm on duty.

I just took her

to get Tubtim's watermelon smoothie.

Oh... Oh, wow.

We...

We stood in line for so long,

and you drank it pretty fast.

Stop it, Sarge...

Master,

I took Lieutenant Peem to Tubtim's stall

for some watermelon smoothies.

Wow...

Boom.

Kaboom.

Real mommy milkers.

It's not...

It's not what he made it out to be, Master.

Don't be shy, Lieutenant.

You can get the Great Charm yantra

from the Master to go after Tubtim.

I didn't...

do anything, Master.

I was just looking at the yantra

you tattooed on her...

I just thought it was beautiful.

I didn't mean to look

at her breasts or anything.

Jeez...

You don't have to lie, Lieutenant.

It's not good to lie in front of her.

I saw how pleased you looked.

I suppose the lieutenant

is parched for watermelon juice

from Tubtim's big, sweet watermelons.

She is.

Absolutely, she is.

Paying your respects to the Buddha images?

Take my place, for I am weary.

What?

You!

You really enjoy ruining

other people's relationships, don't you?

- What? - Keep your mouth shut, Sarge.

Are you coming in?

If not, throw that away for me.

What?

I was just teasing.

Why the mood?

All done, Auntie.

Sweet Ratha, thank you very much

for taking Kord in to donate blood.

It's all good.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Doctor.

The cat is now stable.

While you were sleeping,

someone brought their cat in to donate blood.

Please excuse me.

Thank you.

Welcome back,

little Raek Phob.

What happened earlier...

Pray, put your hands together and pray.

He is incredibly sacred.

I prayed that

he would protect you

from all harm, my dearest.

Why would you pray so, my beloved?

I am still fine.

And have you a clue

what awaits you

as my karmic soulmate?

Lom has told me briefly.

But I want to hear from your own mouth

what it means to you

to have me as your karmic soulmate.

"Karmic soulmates"

are two souls who have performed good deeds together,

fostering one another's merit and virtue.

But if they are to share a life together,

their souls must be bound by love.

To me,

you awaken the feelings

of desire,

yearning,

worry,

and fear.

Fear of losing you.

So much so that I myself am unsure

whether having a karmic soulmate

is as pleasant as my father has declared.

Have I...

become your weakness?

Before we can share a life together,

we must overcome many more obstacles,

some of which may prove fatal to you.

It is well within your right to decide.

Should you decide

to leave,

I shall never halt you.

I shall wish for you

to find a soul who aids you.

I shall wish you happiness.

Do you know...

what blessing I sought from him?

I asked that

Master Bulan

and I

may remain by each other's side forever.

Come hell or high water,

may we never be separated,

for we...

are already fated to be karmic soulmates.

I love you, Master Bulan.

I love you...

more than anyone.

I...

Chanwara Kritpirat,

solemnly vow

before Lord Buddha

and all sacred beings throughout the realm

that I shall bind my heart

to my dearest alone.

Come what hurdles may,

we shall fight through them together

for as long as I shall breathe.

Before all sacred beings

throughout the realm,

I...

Phitcha Ruechakun,

solemnly vow before all sacred beings that

I...

shall remain by Master Bulan's side forever.

May no hurdles

or perils

ever tear her and me apart.

All the merits I have accumulated

from my past lives

to my present life,

I dedicate to Master Bulan.

May you protect her and keep her safe

for as long as I shall breathe.

So this...

is the first smile

that reveals the person I love the most.

Don't cry, my beloved.

I will be by your side

like this forever.

I love you, my dearest.

Mm.

- ♫No need to take the pills, the pills♫ - Oh, Daddy.

In your life, have you ever seen spawns of maras?

Here they are,

in the flesh,

right in front of your eyes, ma'am.

This one, wow...

That hairstyle is called "Gecko's Tail."

That one's wearing short shorts.

This one shows off her belly button.

This one... Wow!

Fish-faced, straight from the pond.

Look at them spawning to pay respects to Buddha images

and make merit.

Here they are.

Alright, please, ladies and gentlemen,

go get changed

and behave appropriately for this place.

What, Dad?

- We just got here, though. - Yeah.

- We haven't even paid our respects. - Exactly.

We're like, so cute, sexy, and kawaii.

- Go away now. - There's that.

Be considerate of the images.

Alright, we're leaving.

Go!

- Oh, my... Sadhu. - Alright, alright!

- Goodbye. - I'm leaving.

There.

Kids these days.

Ugh! Hurry. I wanna go home and get to bed.

- I already told you, babe, - I'm already sleepy.

that I want Barbies!

Ugh, I'm sleepy.

I wanna go home!

What about my Barbie?!

What the heck?!

Damn it!

Go home with me.

My baby's picking me up.

Ugh...

Even someone like you is taken.

Hop on!

Go home now.

Still wanna go home?!

The stuff I told you to look for,

did you get all of it?

Sir,

is that Lieutenant Peem's cup?

Yes.

Would you like me to throw it away?

Alright, okay.

Jeez, you have such sweet eyes, ma'am.

Here you go,

the straw and soil Lieutenant Peem walked on.

What are you gonna do with these things?

I'll...

tell you all about it later, baby girl.

You must be so tired today,

right?

Faii's been unreachable since last night.

I've coordinated with Mae Sot Police Station.

I was informed that, apart from Faii,

three other girls were missing that night.

Besides rescuing the victims,

you must also capture Krating.

From this day forth,

let karma take the reins.

I merely wish

to share my life with my karmic soulmate

till fate do us part.

♫It's not that I don't feel it♫

♫It's not that I'm cold-hearted♫

♫For the love you've given♫

♫It's because it feels too good to be true,♫

♫So much so that I doubt if it's true♫

♫If it's smoke and mirrors, a dream that lingers♫

♫Deeply swayed by love, all while shaken with dread,♫

♫Scared that it's not love after all in the end♫

♫What if, between us,♫

♫It's nothing but a perfect illusion,♫

♫Nothing short of deception?♫

♫What I've kept hidden for ages,♫

♫Do you know how painful it is♫

♫To keep my heart locked away in a cage?♫

♫Can you so gently give me some time,♫

♫For me to ponder what's on my mind?♫

♫I would hate to be wavering when love binds♫

♫Deeply swayed by love, all while shaken with dread,♫

♫Scared that it's not love after all in the end♫

♫What if, between us,♫

♫It's nothing but a perfect illusion,♫

♫Nothing short of deception?♫

♫What I've kept hidden for ages,♫

♫Do you know how painful it is♫

♫To keep my heart locked away in a cage?♫

♫Tell me it's not an illusion you beautifully created♫

♫Don't let my heart suffer and ache inside this cage♫

♫I would do anything just to escape♫

♫What if, between us,♫

♫It's nothing but a perfect illusion,♫

♫Nothing short of deception?♫

♫What I've kept hidden for ages,♫

♫Do you know how painful it is♫

♫To keep my heart locked away in a cage?♫

♫I don't want to lock my heart away♫

♫I wish you'd know one day♫
