Song Description

A song about people who latch on and make your life their own.

Lyrics

I don't know why
You cry for me

Sitting there alone again
Thoughts of me your only friend
Can't you see that I am gone
Can't you make your life your own
There's no need to sanctify
There's no need to live the lie
I was gone before I left
You lost you the day we met

You wrapped yourself around my heart
Squeezed 'till I was torn apart
I became the only one
Guiding light and burning sun
You loved me and no one else
You had no time to love yourself
Your skin is soft, your eyes are bright
Obsession's not a pretty sight

I don't know why
You cry for me

I said I'd always lived alone
You'd moved in when I got home
Said short hair'd look good on you
You cut it off that afternoon
Mentioned that I liked a band
You became their biggest fan
In the furnace of our love
You prayed to me your god above

I should not have come alone
You should not have left your throne
Your love for me just cannot hide
The hate for you you hold inside
I want to love the you I see
But all you are is love for me
Your skin is soft, your eyes are bright
Obsession's not a pretty sight

I don't know why
I cry for you
