I know some things will never change And good instincts are earned making mistakes Although I knew I was drying the well I was desperate to make it last It comes down to a dark and fierce desire The one you knew was always out of line I realized what it means to be obsessed I was desperate to make it last Every decision for something Is a decision against something else Frozen under the shade of the hourglass I was desperate to make it last To stay vigilant and hold your fire Can be so goddamn difficult at times I realized what it means to be obsessed I was desperate to make it last I read it on your face, you let it slip away I read it on your face, you let it slip away There was no other way, you let it slip away I read it on your face, you let it slip away.
