lyrics

Desire

I learned to taste your guilt,
the guilt you never needed
I learned to smell your fear
The fear that you were seeding
They say desire is the root is the root of evil
I say, “it’s guilt which builds the cross to bear”

You say I have to watch my back, because they’re evil
Yet I know what’s inside my heart will keep me fair
I‘m filled with guilt- because you let me
You let me carry on your sin
And I’ve put it down, so I can get me
Get me to my love, which lies within

I’m no longer a child, I understand
The laws of the wild
I’m free, I’m me
I’m ready to be fully in my glory
I’ve already written the story

I’ve shed your skin can’t let your fear and guilt win
I’m innocent as the day that I was born
I don’t hold my life in vain
If you wanna keep it- well, here’s your old pain
Although I’d rather let it rain
the tears that bring you home to
where I sing!

Desire, desire, the internal fire
Flaming in the passion of the heart
Desire, desire, passion builds it higher
I’m ready to receive my part
My life’s a play being written as it starts,
I’ve learned the words, I’ve named the cast
Chosen the venue and the time
Now all that’s left is to open the curtains,
the gong begins to chime!

Desire, desire, the internal fire
Desire, desire, the internal fire
Flaming in the passion of the heart
Desire, desire, passion builds it higher
I’m ready to receive my part

I weighed the world upon my back
So you could take it easy
I learned that love would double back
to the place where it was born
I pushed my brain, believing I was learning
searching for a rudder in the present storm
Desire, desire, Desire, desire
