[Verse 1]
You say I can be colder
It’s just all in my head
I’ll decide when it’s over
Can we try it again
(Can we try it, I’m a lazy body)
Carry me up in the darkness and I will find
You by my side, you by my side, you by my side

[Bridge]
I see, every time I look there’s more dust on the leaves
I know you do, I know you do
When I fall asleep you can take it from me
(If you wanted the torture)
If you’re following I’ll be out for the night
Then you’ll have it that way

[Chorus]
Take it from me, I know what you need
It’s just a way for me not to breathe
Everything else isn’t anything
Trying to find out what’s happening

[Verse 2]
Maybe I’m a martyr, make myself suffer in everything
Could be an obsession, suddenly a blessing if you wanted me
[Chorus]
Take it from me, I know what you need
It’s just a way for me not to breathe
Everything else isn’t anything
Trying to find out what’s happening

[Verse 3]
Maybe I’m a martyr, make myself suffer in everything
But you didn’t run, no she didn’t run, no she didn’t want to be anything

[Outro]
I can be your shelter, baby
I can be your sweet
I can be your lover, beneath the sheets
I can be your lover in the storm if you would let me
Why won’t you let me be your lover?
