Lyrics
Desire
If you dig down deep, nothing’s as it seems it’s dangerous
Scratch away the thin veneer to reveal
A soul that’s full of longing and it’s dangerous
Desire it is coming for you, Desire oh desire
Desire it will tear you in two, Desire oh desire
Mediocrity will eventually grind you down
That protective shell of normality it’s gone
It’s gone and now it’s dangerous
You can’t fight the feeling it’s been missing for too long
And now it takes you over
It will take your heart, it will break it apart and leave you believing
That you’re in your right mind when you’re out of your mind
And oh it’s dangerous
