about

"I gave you my all, my flesh, my soil, my will.
Did all those stars cry for me? Or for you?
I gave you my self, my future, my memory.
Is it not right that you burn for me?"

lyrics

I've seen you all come and go, live, love, lie.
Like ghost and machines try to lay down the law.
I've seen it all come and go, build, break, bind.
With every future you have become, believed, betrayed, destroyed.

Come the day, come the night.
Let us sleep in undecided ness of love.
For all that's here.
On this day comes the fright.
Lay it down and then just come to me.
See you love, see you take off that flesh for me.

I will hold you.
I will seize you.
I'm gonna love you for all the times I've killed you.

(For all the times I die)

I can feel you.
Peel my skin for you.
Maybe the sun will open wide.

All these stars that have come and gone.
They've seen you swirling around in my dying light.
Won't you dance with me.
Come make love to me before you die.
All these moons that have lived and died.
They've seen you crawl, seen you fall, Seen you fight for life.
Won't you dance with me.
See you love, see you take off that flesh for me.

I made you over and over.
I taught you over and over.
I trusted over and over.
I gave to you over and over.
I loved you over and over.
You broke me over and over.
I loved you over and over.
I'll burn you over and over.

Come the day, come the night.
Let us sleep in undecided ness of love.
For all that's here.
On this day comes the fright.
Lay it down and then just come to me.
See you love, see you take off that flesh for me.

All these stars that have come and gone.
They've seen you swirling around in my dying light.
Won't you dance with me.
Come make love to me before you die.
All the moons that have lived and died.
They've seen you crawl, seen you fall, seen you fight for life.
Come dance with me.
Come love, come take off that flesh for me.
