Desire Shaped Wound

Deep inside my heart, there's a lion
Scraping at the walls, and tearing at the arteries
I wish he wouldn't do that, but then
Where has wishing taken me again?
Deep inside a wound, a desire-shaped wound
Therein lays the child, therein lays the whole damn world
A thousand feet above my love
A thousand cities cursed by God
No, you don't care the friends I have
You don't care, you drive me mad
You love life like an animal
You never had to write a song
To climb out of the frozen tomb
To feed the damn desire-shaped wound
To climb out of the frozen tomb
To feed the damn desire-shaped wound
Deep inside my heart there's a liar
Burning like a secret kept, silently as we both wept
I'd quit charades and leave this mess but then, oh
Where has leaving taken you again?
Deep inside a wound, a desire-shaped wound
Therein lays the child, therein lays the whole damn world
A thousand feet above my love
A thousand cities cursed by God
No, you don't care the friends I have
You don't care, you drive me mad
You love life like an animal
You never had to write a song
To climb out of the frozen tomb
To feed the damn desire-shaped wound
To climb out of the frozen tomb
To feed the damn desire-shaped wound
To climb out of the frozen tomb
To feed the damn desire-shaped wound
To climb out of the frozen tomb
To feed the damn desire-shaped wound
