Painted
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.
I can't seize the river from running to the sea
I can't seize the thunder from shouting so angrily
I don't have the power to gather seven seas
When I can't seize the fire inside me
Painted like a tattoo
Forbidden like a taboo
This feeling I can't undo
I don't know if you feel it too
Painted like a tattoo
Forbidden like a taboo
A feeling I have for you
Stop it if I wanted to
I can't fight the fever from burning secretly
I can't fight the hour from going without asking me
I know not to shudder this desire easily
Cause I can't fight the fire inside of me
Painted like a tattoo
Forbidden like a taboo
This feeling I can't undo
I don't know if you feel it too
Painted like a tattoo
Forbidden like a taboo
The love is waiting for you
What am I supposed to do?
Painted like a tattoo
Forbidden like a taboo
This feeling I have for you
Stop it if I wanted to
Just like the war against nature
To never dream of you wherever
Cause I have no power to try
The power to try
I can't stop the fire inside of me
