Devotion cover
10. Desires
Album: Devotion
Artist: Anberlin
         
 

Now who are you to be the death of me
Stealing what life you need
Roadside while you watch me bleed
I’ve got to get out of here

Well where do you get off that we revolve around your wants and needs
There’s no way I would change a one side catastrophe
You are the only one in this room that is still the same
You’re still the one night catastrophe

A liar, a liar, that’s what you made of me
A wire, a wire, that’s what were walking on
Desires, desires, it’s all dressed down
Heavy lies the crown, heavy lies the crown

Thought you were the one I figured out
With no creeping doubts, no hiding ins or outs
But I was so wrong, I was so wrong
The knife that’s twisting in my back is proof enough for me
That you’re a one sided catastrophe

A liar, a liar, that’s what you made of me
A wire, a wire, that’s what were walking on
Desires, desires, it’s all dressed down
Heavy lies the crown, heavy lies the crown



Behind the Song:
'This song was one of the few songs that I have written where it wasn’t something that had personally happened to me, rather It is a song warning people the complications of lust and the consequences of acting on those feelings. For those who embark on filling the void in their life with physical affection soon find out that they end up even more empty than when they began the vain pursuit.' -- Stephen Christian
