Verse 1 Back through memory to re-watch All the things you said to me To see only what was there And not what I wanted to see My tears erased the fairytale glory And my blood wrote the real story Chorus Cling not to emotions, for they will deceive you Causing selective amnesia, just to confuse you Truth is, deep down, your emotions will do for you All the dirty work your heart wants them to do Verse 2 If you were a vampire sucking the life out of me I was a witch feeding my vanity on the strength of your youth Under a spell where your devotion became my reckless fuel Bridge But in hindsight - it's a cold assessment You just got me on the verge of harassment A disposable token, easily lost I didn't know how fungible I was Chorus Cling not to emotions, for they will deceive you Causing selective amnesia, just to confuse you Truth is, deep down, your emotions will do for you All the dirty work your heart wants them to do
