to be desired, as I desire

Story

The sunrise sees me try for him

While the sunset sees me cry for him

Two eternities lost themselves in the little moment of despair

My lungs reject all oxygen, can you feel the sorrow in the air?

I break my own heart every night when I look up at the night sky above

Eyes bleed and hearts cry… there are all the stars that you once loved

This world can be a nasty place and this love can be an evil place

Yet it is still the most precious thing I ever had to chase

My love is cruel and my love is true

But my love only ever belonged to you

Why do I feel left out when you laugh tears without me, dear?

Your world is not falling apart like mine is, when you’re not here

Someone left me very early, now I’m scared you’ll do the same

Hear my heart shatter, once there is another name

Hear it shatter, it is such a shame

I got sick from loving you and sick of trying to make you understand

I’d walk with you through hell if you’d just let me hold your hand

I hold onto things that I know are going to be the end of me

I want to be desired, as I desire, I want you to cry and beg for me

I want you to cry, lie and die for me, as I would do for you

In all my melancholy and heartache is loving you all that I can do
