lyrics

I, I get so carried away… Sometimes my desire sets me on fire… Hey! There’s so much that I wanna say. I’ll write it down and throw it away. You are only here cause you have never been “all there” anyway. But, I imagine you in such a way – hanging onto every word I say, grinning and only breathing-in when I give the OK. Sometimes I pretend in my mind that you are my prisoner, and you really don’t mind at all that I’m a monster. So… how do you like your gilded cage? Does it seem you’re constantly on display? You hope for the best, but you are settling for less every day. You are truly better off this way, us never having met face to face. We can’t be on the “outs” if we were never on the “ins” anyway… Wish upon a star to get away, somewhere far… Cause I get so carried away, sometimes my desire sets me on fire. You are like a drug to me, and if I get any higher I will expire.
