Desire

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.

Well, it's happening again

There's nothing that I wouldn't do for you

I guess I should get used to November by now but it's so hard to move

I'm goin' to LA

I just need some time to muse on you

And I smoked my last cigarette in the last ever smoking room

And now it's time to decide

If there's still hope for my mind

Well, there's no hope for desire

If you don't show up tonight

Honey, I wish you were here

I'm watching that Sun go on

Waitin' in the cheapest room in town

I wanna burn this building down

Well, I wanna lay down

That's when the phone starts to ring

But I know I should just lower my expectations, man

Are you out on vacation with the missus again?

So there's no hope to deny

There's no hope for that life

Well, there's no hope for desire

I must be out of my mind

Because I wish you were me

Then you'd know how I feel right now

You've got every way to turn me inside out

I wanna burn this building down

I'm gonna burn this building down

I don't wanna crawl

You know I don't like to watch

I'm so tired, don't even make me want to

Well, I guess I'll go home

Stop putting on a show for these fools

Because the next one to walk by

I know he's going to look exactly like you do to me, honey, tonight

Oh, there ain't nothing left that I could do right now

Except to burn the motherfucker down

Honey, I wish that I was you

I wanna be a part of me too

I wanna roll my tongue around inside of your mouth

We're gonna burn this building down

We're gonna burn this building down

(Well, I wish)

(I wish)

(Well, I wish)

(I wish)
