A hunger never satisfied I can't keep you off my mind Dancing, moving, passing time Lost worlds and endless nights
I held you at a distance then So I could keep you sacred now I watched the veins under my skin Moving, changing from blue to red Those colours battle to repent Fighting some kind of punishment For loving you
The deathless tell me "Go on, stay low Grow old let your hair grow" In sleep there is no sorrow Slowly prolonging a cruel fate For loving you
They hear everything They glow with their own light They sing out your name A thousand times at night
Generations of sadness Inbred and under fire In a thousand languages A word for this desire For loving you
