Object of my one desire,
you are the flood and I'm the fire
keep me from getting what I want
if it's not what I need
I know from experience,
I can stop loving you
but I know I will never stop needing you
Swallow the sea or stab through the heart,
you’re still there if you get rid of me
Oh, for your temperament
or for your quietness
no fault of my own if you draw blood from a stone
I only like who you are when I get you alone
Say hello and nice to meet you,
I’ll be going- hope to see you
Say hello and nice to meet you,
I know I will never want you again

I always said I was immune to your temper
The night is through, I’ve held my breath
And I want you to death
I’m afraid of you
You like the way I talk but hate the way you want me, too
It wouldn’t even be enough if I could drown in you
Do you think you’d fear me, too?
Like I’m afraid of you
If I want you all my life would I be wasting my time

You talk like a goddamn sailor,
taught you to be honest
does cocaine in the trailer park
you know I’m a lady- never seen this place after dark
I am a force with the lights on, let me come home
Always was a quiet girl,
left you for the open road
I know you wish that I was her,
sometimes I want that, too
To feel to my fullest and leave when I want to
She’s forever seventeen and she’s dancing all alone
we are a force with the lights on, let me come home
said you’d never forget your baby or where you come from
Never forget your baby and where you come from

I only came here for you
as much as I’ve put in there’s enough that I wouldn’t do
the stench of your spit on holy land,
I never did want nor could push away the feeding hand
I guess I needed to be loved this way
I’m gonna die in your arms one day
I’m being cold to you
you could only love what you turn me into
and I’d never want to see
the face of how you’d like to have me
If I needed to be shown this way, then I needed to be shown this way
I’m gonna die in your arms one day,
I’m gonna die in your arms
