lyrics

Dreaming bout the face I’ve spurned
Ought to dream about the perfect person to yearn
Buried in our nature is to claim for the purest soul
To feel content about ourselves

Know that I have been amused
Maybe I’m afraid if I succeed in a truce
People say if you dispute be fair to yourself
So I’ll be prim, impeccable to them

Gestures help me please my bones
No, I won’t allow someone to use my throne
Deep inside I know that if I needed a lover
They will be someone who’s wiser than me

Chances are I’ll be amused
Haunted by the time that slips away when I lose
Buried in our nature is claim for the finest soul
A chant for men

Deep in my cells
I know I’m looking for a lover that could save me from hell
I can’t do this alone
My eyes are looking for a lover
But my mind is letting me down

This quiet man stares in a lake
Looking at himself to stay awake
Does he know, does he know, does he know that there’s so much more

He’s tryna stay awake
But his mind falls into a sleepy state
He’s tryna stay awake,
Reminding himself why he lives today

Deep in his cells
He knows he’s looking for a lover that could save him from hell
He can’t do this alone
His eyes are looking for a lover
But his mind is letting him down

I can see what I want but my time is fleeting
Boy you better learn before you fall into a pattern
My desires will shatter if I don’t constrain it
You're packing for hell when you could just drain it
