Lyrics
Desires
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Now who are you to be the death of me
Stealing what life you need roadside while you watch me bleed
I've got to get out of here, I've got to get out of here
Well where do you get off that we revolve around your wants and needs
There's no way I would change a one side catastrophe
You are the only one in this room that is still the same
You're still a one time catastrophe
A liar, a liar - that’s what you made of me
A wire, a wire - that’s what we're walking on
Desires, desires - its all dressed down
Heavy lies the crown, heavy lies the crown
Thought you were the one I figured out
With no creeping doubts no hiding ins or outs
But I was so wrong, I was so wrong
The knife that’s resting in my back is proof enough for me
That you’re a one time catastrophe
