Devotion And Desire
Trying to create something that's not there
A spark I saw as a bomb is just a means to an end
And I was just so happy to be out of my shell again
I don't think that I really cared for who or what
So for now, I'll just have to keep it shut
If you're not ready, you're not ready
Please, stop acting like you are
How could I know
That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark inside your eyes
Was just the match I used to set myself on fire
My mouth's shooting blanks
Situation's unbearable, I've gotten vulnerable
Now anyone is free to waltz right in
My temple's been invaded, and there's nobody guarding it
All over this lonely life (this lonely life)
But what's so wrong with being all alone?
Alone's the only way I've ever known
If you're not ready, you're not ready
Please, stop acting like you are
How could I know (how could I know)
That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark inside your eyes (and I know the spark)
Was just the match I used to set myself on fire
I'm pleading 'cause this kills, and it's still bleeding
My darling, I'm taking my life back to start healing
How could I know (how could I know)
That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark (and I know the spark) inside your eyes
Was just the match I used to set myself on fire
Set myself on fire
A spark I saw as a bomb is just a means to an end
And I was just so happy to be out of my shell again
I don't think that I really cared for who or what
So for now, I'll just have to keep it shut
If you're not ready, you're not ready
Please, stop acting like you are
How could I know
That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark inside your eyes
Was just the match I used to set myself on fire
My mouth's shooting blanks
Situation's unbearable, I've gotten vulnerable
Now anyone is free to waltz right in
My temple's been invaded, and there's nobody guarding it
All over this lonely life (this lonely life)
But what's so wrong with being all alone?
Alone's the only way I've ever known
If you're not ready, you're not ready
Please, stop acting like you are
How could I know (how could I know)
That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark inside your eyes (and I know the spark)
Was just the match I used to set myself on fire
I'm pleading 'cause this kills, and it's still bleeding
My darling, I'm taking my life back to start healing
How could I know (how could I know)
That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark (and I know the spark) inside your eyes
Was just the match I used to set myself on fire
Set myself on fire
