To you I'm just the whore of Babylon
Can't even bring yourself to lie
So shameful you can't just pretend
Don't you understand I need you?
You can't accept me for who I am
If you reject the biggest part of me
Just take a look and give a chance
Maybe if you try you'll understand
But you won't try, not even for me
Because I'm just the whore of Babylon.
En caressant mon main comme je dors
Je me réveille contact à votre
Je vous entends appeler sur moi dans la nuit
Mon nom vous chuchotez dans la nuit
Ainsi près, encore pour l'instant loin
Absolument évanescent,
peu sûr de votre existence
Est tout cela dans mon esprit ?
Le séjour par mon côté ce soir
Je peux être vain de penser c'est assez
Chuchotez vos pensées dans mes oreilles
Calmement donc personne d'autre n'entendra
Je garderai vos secrets les plus sombres
Et protégez vos peurs les plus profondes
Mais vous dérivez avec le vent
Et comme je dérive pour dormir je
Caressing my hand as I sleep
I awaken to your touch
I hear you call to me in the night
Whispering my name
So close, yet so far away
Absolutely evanescent,
unsure of your existence
Is it all in my mind?
Stay by my side tonight
I may be vain to think it's enough
Whisper your thoughts in my ears
Quietly so no one else will hear
I'll keep your darkest secrets
And protect your deepest fears
But you float away with the wind
And as I drift to sleep I wonder
When you'll grace my dreams again
Your facade was eager
Now the truth is meager
What you seemed to care for
Is less than nothing anymore
I thought it could never end
But to you it was all pretend
Now I see through your lies
All the times you said "I'll try"
Well at least now I know
How exactly you say no
I'm going to bed alone
Back to sweet monotone
For all my sins lay bare
I feel I'm barely there
"Just leave me alone"
You say in a tone
And again I am alone
Falling into monotone
Burning Bridges
Im burning my bridges
And I dont know why
I cant stop loving you
Even though I try
I really need some sleep
But I cant for the fear
That Ill dream about you
How can I keep losing
When Im not trying?
How can I keep loving
When I need to forget?
How can you poison
When I try to heal?
How can you shoot
When Ive turned my back?
Im burning my bridges
And youre on the other side
I was trying to come back
But I got lost on the way
And when I turned around
You were gone
How can I keep losing
When Im not trying?
How can I keep loving
When I need to fo
Swept away by your fleeting feelings
Caught up in your current phase
Subject to your irresponsible mayhem
Lured in by your illusion of gravity,
Im drowning in the wake you left behind
Cast aside on your whim of dismissal
Now left alone, escaping your shadow
With only doubt as my companion
