I Would Set Myself On Fire For You
Eight
Reinventing moonlight for model lace
Hands touch faces and lips whispers simple phrases
So faithful, and sincere
(What's the password? What's the password?)
Walked into a room, a kind man
(Error, invalid)
Doesn't know my face, doesn't know my name
(System failure)
The kind man doesn't know my face
(What's the password? What's the password?)
I was alone today
(When I get my hands on him) [I still remember when]
I couldn't help thinking that
(Oh, just you wait and you'll see) [(?)]
There's nothing for me in this town
(When I get my hands on him) [When you came to this place]
(Oh, just you wait and you'll see) [To live and to learn and to live]
I was alone today
(When I get my hands on him) [I still remember when]
I couldn't help thinking that
(Oh, just you wait and you'll see) [We said Hallelujah]
There's nothing for me in this town
(When I get my hands on him) [Can't you spare him some love]
(Oh, just you wait and you'll see) [When he's given so much to you?]
"Well, give me one reason to trust you again"
She said, and I replied
"Well, I cannot, for I have none"
(Can't you give him some of your precious time?)
"Then trust in me, so that mine can return"
She said, and I replied
"Well, I cannot, for I have none"
(Can't you give him some understanding this time?)
"Then share with me, a starving need to hold on"
She said, and I replied
"Well, I cannot, for I have none"
(Can't you give him a chance, just one more time?)
"What then? Where do we place ourselves?"
She said, and I replied
"On the funeral pyre to burn" ("I cannot, for I have none")
(Alone I am now, alone I will stay)
With scriptures written on the walls
This house that used to feel like home
Is now nothing more than a room
Is now nothing more than a room full of strangers
