The White Cassettes - Lust

Years of being the target
To end up at the place I started
Soiled, frayed, betrayed, and alone
So close we came, how we were
Holding the tears while we danced in the rain
Now we watch it fall on what's left of home

But we don't have to talk about it
We can always dance around it
And leave it just how life left us here
In a mental cage, locked in
Destined to be long forgotten
Overcome and governed by your fears
And everything that you believe
Is buried by your lust to be free

Watch me through the glass, just don't
Tap it; if you, do think fast
I may say something that even I'll regret
And I'm not angry, why would I be
Yes, I've always been this crazy
It has been the only way that I forget
The pain the silence brings

But we don't have to talk about it
We can always dance around it
And leave it just how life left us here
In a mental cage, locked in
Destined to be long forgotten
Overcome and governed by your fears
And everything that you believe
Is buried by your lust to be free

I won't ask you anything again
But I beg you, please don't let this be the way we end
Right when I felt alive
A force pushed me back inside
And it wasn't me this time
And that's what hurts the most

We don't have to talk about it
We can always dance around it
And leave it just how life left us here
In a mental cage, locked in
Destined to be long forgotten
Overcome and governed by your fears
And everything that you believe
Is buried by your lust, you see
You're sheltered from love's embrace
Well, if that's the case

I'll wait
