It's On Sale For A Good Reason

Hold your ears and speak with sorrow

It sounds as if these words are hollow

You stutter something like "just close your eyes

And for tonight let's feel alive."

Your body reaches out, saying it's just one last time

One last... one last time

The tables turn, you're controlling the show

And every movement throws a wake

That sends me drowning below, below

The lights come on, now we're ready to go

I try to step away, but now it's on with the show, the show

Your lips are something that taste like kerosine

You say "baby, take a bite."

Voice drenched with fantasy

You're the fire under my bed

I fear going to sleep

You're the worst nightmare that I have ever dreamed

The tables turn, you're controlling the show

And every movement throws a wake

That sends me drowning below, below

The lights come on, now we're ready to go

I try to step away, but now it's on with the show, the show

Everytime that you come in close

It's like I have no more choice

All I can do it regret

And when the show comes to a end

You'll be the winner once again

I feel I cannot breathe, when you move like the sea

I'll slowly try escape this hold you have on me

But I'll succeed

Your body like poetry, singing sweet melody

Breathing so heavily

This melody of my memory

And face to face, give you back the kiss you gave

Take back all the things you said

I never was one for this type of display

Is it the way that you move?

You will never see what you want me to be
