Pure Desire

The room just lost its corners, fading out to grey And I’m standing in the wreckage of a common day I didn't see the lightning till the sky was torn Now my pulse is doing laps like it’s being reborn You’re a static electricity, a hum in my teeth There’s a tectonic shifting starting underneath I’m not looking for a promise or a silver ring I just need the chemical that your shadow brings My lungs are heavy My vision is blurred The loudest silence I’ve ever heard Gravity’s failing I’m losing the floor Give me the spark, then give me some more Oh, you’re the fever in the middle of the freeze Bringing every single cell to its shaking knees It’s a beautiful collision, it’s a high-wire dance I’m a victim of the rhythm, I don’t stand a chance In the center of the storm, where the world goes still You’re the only thing that’s real, you’re the only thrill Yeah, the clock is frozen, but my blood’s on fire Drowning in the neon of a pure desire Your eyes are like a magnet pulling on my spine I’m crossing every border, every warning line Forget the conversation, let the oxygen burn We’re past the point of safety, past the point of return It’s a physical religion, it’s a holy itch And I’m blinded by the flicker of your golden switch My lungs are heavy My vision is blurred The loudest silence I’ve ever heard Gravity’s failing I’m losing the floor Give me the spark, then give me some more Oh, you’re the fever in the middle of the freeze Bringing every single cell to its shaking knees It’s a beautiful collision, it’s a high-wire dance I’m a victim of the rhythm, I don’t stand a chance In the center of the storm, where the world goes still You’re the only thing that’s real, you’re the only thrill Yeah, the clock is frozen, but my blood’s on fire Drowning in the neon of a pure desire Stop the world Let it break Let it fall away I’m addicted to the havoc that your hands can play It’s not a dream if I can feel the sting It’s not a ghost if I can hear you sing YEAH, YOU’RE EVERYTHING! Oh, you’re the fever in the middle of the freeze Bringing every single cell to its shaking knees It’s a beautiful collision, it’s a high-wire dance I’m a victim of the rhythm, I don’t stand a chance In the center of the storm, where the world goes still You’re the only thing that’s real, you’re the only thrill Yeah, the clock is frozen, but my blood’s on fire Drowning in the neon of a pure desire The world is still gone And you’re still here Pure desire Don't let me wake up
