A Selfish Need

stop, there's no need to honeysweet a selfish deed.
doomed from the start, using love as a spare part.
dressed as a spark, flaming everything that's dark.
stealing the burn out of someone else's heart.

feeding this fire, means breaking us down.
flirting with desire, burning us to the ground.
feeding this fire, means breaking us down.
flirting with desire, burning us to the ground.
let it burn us down...

we act as love is a thing that can't be lost,
we act as love can never be hurt.

stop, there's no sense, in simulating a romance.
squeezing the life out of a scared and hurt goodbye.
unsaid and untied, life's a lonely selfish lie,
shouldering weight, wishing for a way to die.

building this up means breaking us down.
digging deeper, more dirt will be found.
building this up means breaking us down.
digging deeper, more dirt will be found.
till it breaks us down...

we act as love is a thing that can't be lost.
we act as love can never be hurt.
