[Verse 1]

You like control? Well, I do too

Take off my clothes and watch me move

You can come closer, I'll let you hurt me

How you choose

Help me with the zipper on my skirt, it's stuck

As you kneel, I'll be watching you fix me

This view of you, of the top of your head

Makes me forgive you


[Chorus]

But how long, how long can we play this way?

I'm tired, I'm tired of not loving you

My heart, my heart wants to hold you

But I know, I know, I know the rules


[Verse 2]

Blue light, dark room, the white of your teeth

As you smile at my trembling shoulders

But your skin, did you notice your skin?

It cries a soft weep like mine


[Chorus]

I'll sell, I'll sell my whole to you

What's my, what's my, what's my price?

How 'bout, how 'bout just a part of you?

'Cause I want, I want, I want, I want

I want, I want, I want, I want, I want
