[Verse 1]
I am not one
In a long line of others
I was a gasp
Spit out from their mouths
With no voice
I would be just like them
Giving it all away
Like so much desire

[Verse 2]
See, she is young
With a child's body
And a new name
To turn in their mouths
And I was like her
Though I didn't know then
Now I watch it fall away
Like so much desire

[Verse 3]
Out for a drive
Windows half open
I hear the sirens
Before I can see them
It is so like me
To dream of better places
Losing the old for the new
Like so much desire
Like so much desire
