Bad Desire
Lyrics:
[English]
"Did you really think I could just stand by and watch you disappear?"
"I told myself it was for you..."
"His heart will always beat toward the darkness."
"It was your own desire."
With or without you
With or without you
I want to protect you, you’re so transparent
I beg you, stop it, stay there
Don't come any closer
My darkness, let it move past you
This isn't right
Don’t touch, don’t do it
Even if I stop my hand reaching out to you
The moon, so massive you could touch it
Bathes my desire in crimson red
With or without you
A heaven without you must be like hell
With or without you
A hell where I embrace you must be like heaven
Yeah, you got that
Oh oh
With or without you
Set ablaze by this beautiful fire
It’s all my bad desire
Even if I hold you close and make you mine
Even if I curse you to be with me forever
In the end, you'll smile gleefully for me, oh
This isn't right
Don’t touch, don’t do it
Even if I stop my hand reaching out to you
The moon, so massive you could touch it
Bathes my desire in crimson red
With or without you
A heaven without you must be like hell
With or without you
A hell where I embrace you must be like heaven
Yeah you got that
Oh oh
With or without you
Set ablaze by this beautiful fire
It’s all my bad desire
Tell me
all your
deepest
(All your bad desires)
Tell me
all your
deepest
(All your bad desires)
Oh oh
With or without you
Set ablaze by this beautiful fire
It’s all my bad desire
