I want it sometimes…

I never wanted much

I never complained

Only want a little love

Sometimes

I just need a little touch

A little color on a greyscale

Or I forget to inhale

Sometimes

Now I don’t even know

If you want to stay

Saw you when it all burned down

That look was on your face

Now you want to save this house

Well it’s far too late

Oh you want to be my healer

Now that I’m up in flames

But I was burned before the fire

But I was burned before the fire

I don’t have another heart

Don’t remember how to say

I don’t want you to let me down

Sometimes

I already know this part

Leave it for another day

Wish it wasn’t this hard

Sometimes

Now I don’t even know

If you want to stay

Saw you when it all burned down

That look was on your face

Now you want to save this house

Well it’s far too late

Oh you want to be my healer

Now that I’m up in flames

But I was burned before the fire

But I was burned before the fire

But I was burned before the fire

But I was burned before the fire
