Self-starter

Last night rolled over beside my bed
That sort of madness, could leave on dead
Our eyes deceive, we were on fire
Long for love and love desire
I still can't feel nothing just want to hold something
Tell me again what's real, tell me again what to feel
Why do you stay until you see blood
Why does the weight fall upon us
We're on the same side in the same war
Why stay 'til you see blood
Where are we that we digress
Long for love but then undress
Our hands no bounds, our hearts detached
We grast for all that will not last
I still can't feel nothing just want to hold something
Tell me again what's real, tell me again what to feel
I still can't feel nothing just want to feel something
Tell me again what's real, tell me again what to feel
Why do you stay until you see blood
Why does the weight fall upon us
We're on the same side in the same war
Why stay 'til you see blood
Fall
Falter on my chest
Feel
Failure to progress
Why do you stay until you see blood
Why does the weight fall upon us
We're on the same side in the same war
Why stay 'til you see blood
