  • Love, do you want love? Do you want lust?
    Say you don't know
    Maybe you just like the control, like it all cold
    But I like ya, like ya, like you're drugs
    Sit in my blood, maybe too much, never enough
    I am your dog, I'm on your floor, all that you want
    But I like ya, like ya, like you're drugs

    You get all worked up
    Loving you, but it's not enough
    Loving you from the airlock of
    Your heart, from airlock one
    Fear pulls you from my arms
    It's a reckless abandon
    One look and it's all gone
    All the air from the bottom of my lungs

    Water, running down my face
    Water, running different ways
    Water, like a billion waves
    Water, just a tear in space
    Water, running down my face
    Water, running different ways
    Water, like a billion waves
    Water, just a tear in space

    Ooh, too late, my love
    You blew me into stardust
    Ooh, but I made it, just
    Dangling like a thread from you
    I climb into your walls
    I'm where the spiders go
    I'm here, but you aren't sure
    What are you waiting for?
    Stretch me like leather rope
    Make me invisible
    Shape me into your form
    What are you waiting for?

    Hostage, so in love
    It's an airless black-chasm
    You turn the airlock on
    You turn the airlock on
    Object disappearance
    It's a true phenomenon
    Forget me and I'm gone
    I'm slipping, no-no-no-no-no

    Water, running down my face
    Water, running different ways
    Water, like a billion waves
    Water, just a tear in space
    Water, running down my face
    Water, running different ways
    Water, like a billion waves
    Water, just a tear in space Writer/s: David Algernon Bayley
