lyrics

Call it like I see it,
see it like a blind man,
play the broken record.
I can sing it by heart.

Keep me like a secret,
Break me like a promise,
I am just a fortune,
spent on wanting your love.

I don’t need a reason:
God is dead and love’s blind.
The only bible I need,
is how your body moves mine.

Running out of reasons.
to trust the wish in your well.
love me like you have to,
kiss me like a need to

Ohhh,
when I’m your castaway,
that man will sink your ship.
He’s an island that you’re on.
you’re miles away from home.
I’m everywhere but there,
the water is in my lungs.

Call it like I see it,
see it like a blind man,
held you like the wind and,
lost you like a childhood.

Spend you like a fortune,
turn you into gold and,
cash in on your body,
get rich in your bedroom.

Nights are getting longer,
days are spilling into,
deep wells that we wish in,
you’re every coin that I have.

Looking for you now in,
everyone that I meet but,
you are never in there:
they’re just a ghost to haunt me.
