Lyrics

My chest is bursting like lava from a volcano
Wondering if this body will ever want to let you go
But you'll never change me I hope you know

Set our guns to stun, close our eyes and pray we hit the mark
I can imagine you are whoever I want you to be in the dark
You said there was no pressure, no need to fit into a shape
But that was really your crafty way of making your escape

But you raise a good point
And I raise you a new game
I'd shoot this arrow straight through your heart
If only I had better aim

Well you had me in the palm of your hand
You had a map in your head, you had it all planned
But I did everything I could to make me impossible to understand

Like a chessboard I wait for you to take your turn
Make a move, take a chance, fill my mind with concern
But that's a game you seem like you'll never learn

Set your sights to the moon, and I will meet you there
I've been waiting patiently and I'd say it's unfair
Because all I ever wanted was not to fit into that shape
But really that was my crafty way of making my escape

But I raised a good point
And you raised me a new game
You'd have done away with me sooner
If only you had better aim

I'm not afraid to feel nothing anymore
It would make me no different than what I was before

Take this with a grain of salt, you were never all that special
I was lonely and I needed to feel something new
And you were more than willing to occupy that space
