You say I can be colder
It’s just all in my head
I’ll decide when it’s over
Can we try it again
(Can we try it, I’m a lazy body)
Carry me up in the darkness and I will find
You by my side, you by my side, you by my side

I see, every time I look there’s more dust on the leaves
I know you do, I know you do
When I fall asleep you can take it from me
(If you wanted the torture)
If you’re following I’ll be out for the night
Then you’ll have it that way

Take it from me, I know what you need
It’s just a way for me not to breathe
Everything else isn’t anything
Trying to find out what’s happening

Maybe I’m a martyr, make myself suffer in everything
Could be an obsession, suddenly a blessing if you wanted me

Take it from me, I know what you need
It’s just a way for me not to breathe
Everything else isn’t anything
Trying to find out what’s happening

Maybe I’m a martyr, make myself suffer in everything
But you didn’t run, no she didn’t run, no she didn’t want to be anything

I can be your shelter, baby
I can be your sweet
I can be your lover, beneath the sheets
I can be your lover in the storm if you would let me
Why won’t you let me be your lover?
