[English]

Eyes like ice, glaring red

Breaking me in two, shaking me

Standing in front of your throne

A fire burns inside me

What I gotta do, my burning hands

Reach out to you but I cannot have it

I cannot touch you, never

But I’m drawn to you

The more I hurt the more I want you

Please stop, don’t stop

Please stop, don’t stop (Ah)

My body is burning up because of you

My heart thirsts because of you

Like a fever, fever, fever, fever

I want to embrace you

Push me away but my fire still burns

Turn to ash but the flame still rises

Like a fever, fever, fever

I want to ache for you

Don’t stop!

Yes, all day, all day burn me

Please stop!

My Sun, stop Baby oh baby

I beg you, do something anything

Release me, embrace me

My body is burning up because of you

My heart thirsts because of you

Like a fever, fever, fever, fever

I want to embrace you

Push me away but my fire still burns

Turn to ash but the flame still rises

Like a fever, fever, fever

I want to ache for you

My body is burning up because of you

My heart thirsts because of you

Like a fever, fever, fever, fever

I want to embrace you

Push me away but my fire still burns

Turn to ash but the flame still rises

Like a fever, fever, fever

I want to ache for you
