The Affair
I'm not the forward stranger
that you've been longing for.
How can I be, but not enough..
what is this, and are you sure.
A volitile situation
perhaps my comforts there.
a new life contradiction,
and I still don't think you care..
Are you here for selfish needs,
are you listening to me...
its raining and I'm in it...
soaked in accountabilities.
An underlying danger
equation demands consequence
an explosion slowly churning
my need to jump the fence.
Its raining, can you hear me
I'm not the stranger in your dream
but I can take you to that place
that up to now was never real.
ignition, savage, spreading,
fire taking hold
and for a strangers meeting
its way too fucking bold.
the rain won't wash it away
I tried again today
just miserable and wet
my dampened spirit can't forget.
and you won't let me
knocking at my door
just tell me why you're here
with that passion I can't ignore.
that you've been longing for.
How can I be, but not enough..
what is this, and are you sure.
A volitile situation
perhaps my comforts there.
a new life contradiction,
and I still don't think you care..
Are you here for selfish needs,
are you listening to me...
its raining and I'm in it...
soaked in accountabilities.
An underlying danger
equation demands consequence
an explosion slowly churning
my need to jump the fence.
Its raining, can you hear me
I'm not the stranger in your dream
but I can take you to that place
that up to now was never real.
ignition, savage, spreading,
fire taking hold
and for a strangers meeting
its way too fucking bold.
the rain won't wash it away
I tried again today
just miserable and wet
my dampened spirit can't forget.
and you won't let me
knocking at my door
just tell me why you're here
with that passion I can't ignore.
