F*** it?s back again
Just go away
The image of you still appears always
You were everything I wanted
You just slipped away
Yeah you want me to leave my head
Without your warm embrace
I feel out of place
Why can?t we stop this cycle
Let me be your disciple
Because you meant so much to me
Wait, what am I think?n?
You?ll f*** me with out blink?n
Without blink?n
I can?t feel the grief
I fall down to my knees
My knees
I feel that I would die
Without that lost sparkle you eyes
Oh, ?. in those eyes
Those eyes that lie
Yeah Yeah
Do you ever sit down and cry
When you do not even know why
you lied?
I ponder this question always
Are we really unconscientiously soul-less
You?re so soul-less
But it doesn?t matter now
?Cause the drug is growing fatter
It?s growing more and more and more
Let me give you what you need
Love and not greed
For your taste I plead
Chorus:
Wait, what am I think?n?
You?ll f*** me with out blink?n
Without blink?n
I can?t feel the grief
And fall down to my knees
My knees
I feel that I would die
Without that lost sparkel in those eyes
Those eyes that lie
Yeah Yeah
Why can?t I just taste you one more time?
Feel the poison on my lips and cry
I just want to taste you
Why can?t I taste you?
Just let me taste you!
Wait, what am I think?n?
You?ll f*** me with out blink?n
Without blink?n
I can?t feel the grief
And fall down to my knees
My knees
I feel that I would die
Without that lost sparkel in those eyes
Those eyes that lie
Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah
