My heart is aflame
|
Burning at both ends
|
Under a glass jar
|
Gasping for air
|
Nature's poison always tastes so sweet
|
I will take my chances again and again
|
|
So
|
Hold me
|
Reel me in
|
|
Struck by the hand that feeds me,
|
Shot by both sides
|
And drawn, like moths to a flame,
|
Into the light
|
Into the light
|
That burns me
|
|
My heart is a fridge full of condiments and no food;
|
I'm starving for you.
|
If you won't be my Juliet
|
Will you be my Emmanuel?
|
We'll keep it meaningless
|
|
Just
|
Hold me
|
Reel me in
|
|
Struck by the hand that feeds me
|
Shot by both sides
|
And drawn, like moths to a flame,
|
Into the light
|
Into the light
|
That blinds me
|
|
I won't pretend it's the first time
|
Or that I've never been kissed
|
Don't need to hear that you want me
|
Just need to know I exist
|
I won't scream like a banshee
|
I'm not a psycho, just strange
|
You wrap yourself around me
|
I pray for blackout or fade
|
I pray for blackout or fade
|
|
I'm not a question of sport, babe
|
I'm not a figure of fun
|
I'm not a fucking retard
|
So don't treat me like one
|
I'm just saying,
|
Take this chance, it's now or never
|
Take this chance, it's now or never
|
Take me, please, it's now or never
|
Take your chances
|
Take your chances
|
Take your chances.
